Her Dram Story takes place at The Glasshouse Hotel in Edinburgh on Wednesday 19 August 2026, running from 6pm to 9:30pm. Tickets are listed at £45. The whisky tasting and networking event is aimed at whisky enthusiasts and industry professionals interested in the women influencing Scotland’s whisky sector.

According to the Forever Edinburgh Events listing, organiser Go&Glow.edi has built the evening around conversation, storytelling, tasting and professional connection. Its focus extends beyond the whisky itself to women leading brands, running businesses, educating consumers and creating independent bottlings.

Five whisky organisations join the Edinburgh programme

Representatives from Whyte & Mackay, The Borders Distillery, Woodrow’s of Edinburgh, Sipseekers and Fragrant Drops are due to participate. Their involvement brings established producers and independent whisky businesses into the same programme, giving attendees an opportunity to hear perspectives from different parts of the sector.

Rather than presenting whisky only through individual samples, Her Dram Story will place the people working across the industry at the centre of the evening. The featured organisations cover areas including distilling, brand leadership, bottling, education and consumer-facing whisky experiences.

Molton Brown will provide fragrance pairing experiences, adding another sensory component alongside the whisky tasting. The programme also includes support for Scottish Women’s Aid, although the source does not specify what form that support will take.

Who the evening is designed for

The combination of tasting, stories and networking may suit attendees seeking more context than a conventional whisky sampling session. Whisky enthusiasts can hear how different organisations present their work, while industry professionals will have a setting intended for conversation and connection.

No session-by-session schedule is published in the Forever Edinburgh listing. It is therefore not possible to identify the order of speakers, tastings or fragrance experiences from the available information. Attendees should use the organiser’s referenced booking option for any further programme details.

The Glasshouse Hotel is at 2 Greenside Place, Edinburgh EH1 3AA. Tickets are advertised at £45 through the Her Dram Story booking option linked from Forever Edinburgh Events. The listing does not give a separate breakdown of what the ticket price covers beyond the described evening.
