On Thursday, 29th October, I Choose Birmingham will be hosting an intimate, one-off event at Opus Restaurant, with award-winning whisky from Glenfiddich as part of the 'I Choose Live' series of events.

We invite you on a journey into Autumn, with six courses of seasonal game; each expertly matched to an accompanying Glenfiddich whisky. Head chef Ben Ternet will be on hand to tell you about the significance of each dish, whilst Glenfiddich brand ambassador Mark Thompson will be embarking on his first visit to Birmingham to explain about each whisky, as well as giving you a little bit of background on the brand and the historic importance of one of the few family owned distilleries left.

There are only 30 tickets available at £125 (not including booking fee) per person and include all food and the six accompanying whiskies, expertly matched to each course.
