Seoul Shilla Hotel's Whiskey + Fragrance Experience Culture Class This Month

Culture Experience Presents Different Programs Every Month

The Shilla Seoul Hotel's 'The Library' is becoming a cultural experience space where guests can enjoy a unique experience beyond the simple concept of a food and beverage space for drinks and desserts.

The Shilla Seoul Hotel announced on the 15th that it will introduce a 'Culture Experience' class at The Library, combining alcoholic beverage menus with cultural elements. The Culture Experience program, newly launched last month and operated with different content each month, is a class where participants experience cultural elements that can be sensed through the five senses?such as artworks, scents, and music?combined with alcoholic beverages like wine and whiskey, along with food that pairs well with them.

In June, the theme is 'Whiskey of Scents,' focusing on whiskey and aroma, where participants will learn systematic ways to enjoy scents. The program will be held on the 20th and 27th from 3 PM for two hours each day. It will be conducted in a 'salon' format where a Balvenie whiskey expert (ambassador) and a perfumer freely share preferences among participants. Attendees will have the opportunity to smell and taste four types of Balvenie whiskey (DoubleWood 12 Years, Caribbean Cask 14 Years, French Oak 16 Years, PortWood 21 Years) and learn how to enjoy whiskey more deliciously and fragrantly. They will discuss the scents that arise from each whiskey, memories they evoke, and associated characters, helping them discover their own whiskey preferences.

A representative from The Shilla Hotel said, "The Culture Experience program, which was first held last month, sold out within three hours after ticket opening, showing great customer interest. Given the high interest in whiskey, we expect a positive response for the June event as well."

Applications for the June Culture Experience can be made through The Shilla Hotel The Library's Naver reservation system.

Meanwhile, The Library will offer 'BingWine' (bingsu + wine), a signature product where guests can enjoy apple mango bingsu and wine until August. Starting in September, they will introduce 'Bingski' (bingsu + whiskey), a menu combining sweet honeycomb bingsu with whiskey.
