Wine, whiskey and Bar school C/O Absolut Vodka

A big day out was had by all, a special invitation to Absolut Vodkas inspirational headquarters in Stockholm.

Wine tasting was on the menu, a quick trip around the world, featuring stop offs in many countries. We tasted wines from Mumm, Perrier Jouët, Campo Viejo, Jacobs Creek, Molina and many more, we worked  our way through approx. 25 sparkling, whites, reds and dessert wines, a cool head, lots of water & not swallowing were the order of the day.

The wine tasting was followed by whiskey school, held at the bar of course, lots of single malts and blends,

If the wine and whiskey weren't enough we also dabbled fro a couple of hours in drink mixing, we all got a chance to shake it loose behind the bar and mix our own.

Mine was an Absolut Hibiscus sour, a new challenge that went down well.

After the cocktail mixing we moved into the dinning area for beef a la Rydberg and some more fantastic cellar selections from Pernod Ricard Sweden.
