The 30 VIP guests enjoyed a champagne reception followed by a comparative tasting between a French and Arbikie Highland Estate Vodka by David Stirling, Founder and Brand Ambassador of Arbikie Highland Estate.

The finale served was a Arbikie Christmas Vodka Highball Cocktail made with a home-made orange, ginger and manuka honey combination served with soda and physalis garnish.
Arbikie Highland Estate Vodka was very well received with some regular drinkers of the French vodka saying they were switching to Arbikie. Our comparison really showed the quality of our vodka.

Owner Nikki Meiklejohn of the renowned Huntly Country House, Castle Hotel, said she would love to stock our vodka and as a family company was thrilled to hear our own family story and focus on our provenance and farm to bottle ethos.
