This Burns Night, ABERFELDY Single Malt Scotch Whisky is bringing a taste of Scotland to London with a series of celebrations across the capital. Taking place throughout Burns Night weekend and the week leading up to Sunday 25 January 2026, events will unfold at The Connaught, Hawksmoor St Pancras, and The Sun Tavern, each offering its own take on whisky, food and festivity.
ABERFELDY’s connection to Robert Burns runs deep, the poet famously celebrated the woods surrounding the distillery in The Birks of Aberfeldy. Known for its smooth, honeyed character and depth of flavour, the whisky lends itself perfectly to intimate tastings, thoughtful food pairings and expertly crafted cocktails.
These spirited events offer the perfect way to stave off the January blues and keep the festive spirit alive.
The Sun Tavern, Bethnal Green
On Burns Night itself, East London favourite The Sun Tavern hosts an evening dedicated to ABERFELDY, featuring a special cocktail menu priced at £9.50. Highlights include the classic Bobby Burns, alongside inventive serves such as the Ooo Long One with pear and oolong tea, and the citrus-led Mama Lady.
Guests can also enjoy elevated traditional dishes, such as haggis canapés, a free whisky and cheese tasting (booking required), and a DJ set to carry the night through. Booking link HERE
The Connaught, Mayfair
For those seeking the ultimate luxury celebration, The Connaught Grill will serve a decadent five-course Burns Menu from 19–25 January (£140pp). Curated by Executive Head Chef Ramiro Lafuente Martinez, the menu showcases premium Scottish produce infused with ABERFELDY whisky, from cured Scottish salmon gravlax to Highland venison loin with an ABERFELDY 21 Year Old cream sauce, finishing with a classic cranachan. Optional whisky pairings are available. Booking link HERE
The Coburg Bar
The Coburg Bar will offer a rare flight of three ABERFELDY Drams (16, 21 and 24 Year Old) from 22–25 January.
Hawksmoor St Pancras
At Hawksmoor’s new Martini Bar, Burns Night is celebrated with a more relaxed, late-night energy. On Sunday 25 January, expect Burns-inspired cocktails made with ABERFELDY 12 Year Old, including a New Loch Sour, Bobby Burns, and Hawkeye the Noo, alongside live music and famously indulgent haggis nuggets (available throughout 19–25 January).
No booking required.
