A NEW TOURISM EXPERIENCE IN HIGHLAND PERTHSHIRE
Working Together
Taste Talk Flings are perfectly formed to slot into a wide range of events, and our Ambassadors are happy to handle every aspect of these delicious experiences for our tourism partners however far flung they may be.
A Unique Scottish Experience
Every Fling will be a complete experience for your clients combining an adventure in taste and aromas with video snippets and something truly unique: – our own specially composed and performed music by local folk legend Dougie MacLean and his son Jamie MacLean.
Price per person ranges from £30 per head upwards, depending on travelling times, venue costs and numbers. However, there are no extras whether Taste Talk handles the individual bookings, or we provide the Fling on behalf of another tourism enterprise.
A Taste of Luxury
In a nutshell, we create a truly Scottish occasion. We pair this country’s finest chocolate truffles by Iain Burnett – The Highland Chocolatier (usually five scrumptious flavours) with superlative samples of gin and malt whisky.
Our Ambassadors talk knowledgeably about their origins and why their fame is so richly deserved. We sprinkle in some history, illustrated by pics and a video clip of Iain Burnett explaining his enthusiasm for pairing his multi-awarded truffles with high-end spirits.
And interspersed, we play our own gorgeous music – a Dougie MacLean and Jamie MacLean suite called ‘Flo’ inspired by Scotland’s wonderland rivers. lochs and seascapes.
