Ugandans and their liquor have really did hit it off over the years and the script even became odorous when they joined Scotch lovers world over to celebrate the inaugural International Scotch Day at Liquid Silk in Kampala.
Scotch is the very pinnacle of cool – loved in every corner of the globe. It’s made to be enjoyed any way you like it. In China, Scotch is often mixed with iced green tea; in the Caribbean it’s served with coconut water; and in India they like it straight.
Official International Scotch Day celebrations are taking place all over the world, and fronting the proceedings is world renowned supermodel Coco Rocha and actress Freida Pinto.
In Kampala, the evening’s proceedings kicked off with welcome Scotch-based cocktails after which the guests were taken through a practical mentorship session on the different ways to enjoy Scotch. The evening’s proceedings were spiced up by performances from Myko Ouma and friends, backed up by a live band.
Juliana Kaggwa, the Marketing and Innovations Director at UBL noted that the diversity of Scotch offerings available at their company gives consumers the luxury to identify which whisky suits their palates.
“Scotch is so cool. It is made to be enjoyed with good company – whenever and wherever,” she explained.
