There are whiskey tastings — and then there’s this whiskey tasting.
Taj Cape Town invites you to the Whiskey Lounge for a globe-trotting flavor journey that’s rich, refined, and just the right amount of rebellious.
Their “Around the World” Whiskey Tasting experience promises five exceptional whiskies, each one thoughtfully paired with a gourmet bite designed to complement, contrast, and elevate the pour.
- Whether you’re a seasoned sipper or just whiskey-curious, this R800 experience is a passport to flavour. You’ll start with a proudly South African pour — Three Ships 10-Year-Old — served with a zesty smoked salmon and lime mousse. Then it’s off to India with Paul John, perfectly matched with tandoori chicken and a tangy tamarind chutney. The U.S. joins the party with Jack Rye, cozying up to brie and caramelised onion on crostini. And Ireland doesn’t just make one appearance — Jameson Select Reserve takes a bow twice, first alongside goat’s cheese and cranberry rolled in pistachio, and again with mackerel risotto balls and garlic aioli.
It’s not just a tasting — it’s a slow, sensory trip across continents, guided by expert curation and Taj’s signature elegance. Each pairing is unexpected in the best way — bold meets balanced, smooth meets spiced, classic meets creative.
