‘NIKKA x CHICHIBU’ whisky tasting with Nathan Shearer from Speciality Brands

27th February 2025

What a night! We had the pleasure of welcoming Nathan Shearer from Speciality Brands to Dunell’s Beaumont last night for our ‘NIKKA x CHICHIBU’ whisky tasting.

Nathan took us on a deep dive into Japan’s rich whisky-making traditions, guiding us through six incredible whiskies from both Nikka and Chichibu’s core ranges. With his signature wit and endless knowledge, he had us all hanging on every word (and sip!).

Our guests left with a newfound appreciation for both single malts and the often-overlooked brilliance of Japanese blends - a huge thank you to everyone who joined us!
