Whisky Tasting Reservation
The Burgundy Lion has developed one of the most complete and enviable whisky programs in the country or even the world. Along with accumulating the largest collection of whisky in the province and serving more single malt than anyone else in the nation, we have developed a public and private tasting program, that focuses on introducing whisky to the uninitiated and offers uisgeophiles an opportunity to sample rare and unique whiskies. The Burgundy Lion hosts tastings open to the public six or seven times during the year and offers private tastings by reservation.
In the past, it was difficult to host private tastings due to the volume level in the Pub. As the demand for private tastings has grown exponentially over the past couple of years, we decided to convert our third floor office into a 25 seat private dining scotch room, perfect for tastings, private dinners and corporate events. Our tastings are hosted by co-owner and whisky expert, Toby Lyle, curator of the Burgundy Lion whisky list. Or by another of our resident whisky professionals.

To host a private whisky tasting, we require a minimum spend of 500$. Tastings usually last 1.5 to 2 hours, include four 0.5oz whisky samples, as well as four paired canapés. Of course, you could always add whiskeys, and we would be happy to create additional canapés to pair alongside!
