Focusing around what we do best: providing the finest of food in Speyside, we have created two events, hosted every day of the festival, that promise to excite your palate and make you stay for more! With canapes that have been creatively curated by Kieran and his team in the kitchen paired with Tamdhu whisky to a 5 course tasting menu in Restaurant 88 paired with drams from all over Speyside, we promise that this will be the first of many trips to Hotel 1881. See you there!

As BroadwayWorld Scotland state 'Christine’s voice is ethereal and haunting. If a voice could take you away to a mystical place to enjoy “uisge beatha”...then Christine’s
voice is the one to do it.”
Christine Kammerer's "Musical Whisky Experience" promises to be a captivating journey, where the rich and nuanced world of Speyside whiskies is brought to life through the art of folklore, storytelling and music – original compositions as well as from local music heritage. As an award-nominated Whisky Ambassador, singer, and composer, Kammerer skillfully weaves together the tales, tunes, and flavours of the region, creating a unique and immersive experience for the audience.
We are delighted to host Christine for the first event of its kind at The Dowans Hotel - join us for what promises to be a once in a lifetime experience.

Details: Sunday, 5th of May, £55pp

Polly Logan, another legend in the industry, is joining us on Sunday of the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival at the Dowans Hotel for a special lunch to discuss all things Tormore Distillery - very recently brought in to take on the role of Distillery Manager, Polly has a special insight into the many wonderful plans that this distillery has for the next few years. Not to be missed! Pick her brains and perhaps you'll be the first to know what the rest of 2024 and the next few years have in store for this awesome distillery!

Alan Wi******er is a legend in the whisky industry (and further afield!). But he wears that title humbly. Without pressure, he will talk about the history of the industry that he loves so much and, in minutes, you will uncover facts, stories and tales that you have never heard of. Put simply, the stuff he doesn't know is not worth knowing in the first place.
Being passionate about his industry's history means that discoveries and tales of illicit stills cause his eyes to sparkle with excitement. At Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival, we are delighted to host an event with Alan where we will travel to a spot behind Glenlivet Distillery, deep in the valley that hosted some of the most infamous illicit stills, share a dram and then return to the Dowans for a whisky paired dram and the opportunity to share in this man's knowledge.- perhaps you'll take home some unique tales to share with your friends!

Details: 4th of May, 10.30am-4pm, £125pp (includes transport to and from Glenlivet)

Our 'In conversation with...' series starts with Thomas, a truly fascinating gent who we very recently had the pleasure of meeting. A gent who was not only instrumental in founding the still operational observatory in La Palma in the early 70s but who also circumnavigated the world by himself; in short, his life has been full of adventure. Join us on the 5th of April to listen to his story, his passion for the stars which proved to be useful on his round the world trip (to say the least!) and, if the sky is clear enough, we will finish the night with a tour of the constellations 🤞

Ticket price includes small bites and a book! Call us on 01340 871488 to book a space - we expect tickets to go quickly so don't miss out.

Did you know that we can offer a wine flight at ? Using the wines that we do by the glass or some other special bottles that we may have open to use for our pairing wines for Restaurant 88's tasting menu, we will offer you a selection to suit your taste - red, white, rose or a mix of all three!

Ask Liam, our resident wine aficionado, for some advice and he'll point you in the direction of a wine that you may have never tried before (and will end up loving!) and tell you the interesting story behind it too. So pop on in to Archies for your next wine fix!
