What Previous Attendees Say about this Masterclass

The IBD Masterclass Local is one of the most enjoyable IBD events I have participated in, both from the scientific and social viewpoints. The accommodation in on-site lodges and the food and drink was exemplary. The Hven distillery may be small but is amazingly innovative. One of their ongoing projects is to determine the impact on spirit maturation of different styles of music. The laboratory facilities and analytical instrumentation at the Hven distillery were amongst the most impressive I’ve seen, especially for such a small distillery.
