On 19 August 2026, Solera by Mothercity Liquor is turning the spotlight on Milk & Honey Distillery with a guided tasting of four distinctive whisky expressions.
Hosted at Solera, The Woodstock Exchange, 66 Albert Road, Woodstock, the masterclass will be led by Shilton Almeida, Global Brand Ambassador for Milk & Honey.
- Based in Tel Aviv, Milk & Honey has developed an international following for whiskies shaped by Israel’s climate and the distillery’s approach to maturation. This masterclass gives guests an opportunity to explore those characteristics across four expressions, while hearing about the distillery and the stories behind the whiskies directly from Almeida.
Which whiskies will be tasted at the Milk & Honey Masterclass at Solera?
The evening features four Milk & Honey whiskies, beginning with Milk & Honey Elements Classic before moving through Elements Sherry and Elements Peated. The tasting concludes with Milk & Honey Apex Dead Sea.
Rather than simply working through four glasses, the evening is designed as a guided masterclass. Almeida will take guests through the whiskies, discuss Milk & Honey’s approach to maturation and answer questions along the way.
The tasting is priced at R250 per person. Guests should arrive at 18:30, with the masterclass beginning at 19:00.
With four expressions covering classic, sherry and peated styles before reaching the Apex Dead Sea, there should be plenty for curious whisky drinkers to compare. It is also a chance for those already familiar with Milk & Honey to hear directly from someone representing the distillery internationally. Seats are limited due to the size of the venue, so advance booking is highly recommended.
