Luxury cycling tour specialist, LeBlanq, has confirmed an agreement with InchDairnie Distillery in Scotland, which sees the whisky producer become its global whisky partner.
Adding to LeBlanq’s food and beverage partnerships with brands including Champagne Laurent Perrier, Michelin, Cold Bath Brewing and Artisan Coffee Co, InchDairnie’s partnership will see its first release, RyeLaw, shared with LeBlanq guests throughout the next two years.
InchDairnie Distillery will host tastings at each of LeBlanq’s joyriding weekends in 2023, offering LeBlanq’s guests the opportunity to be amongst the first to taste RyeLaw in destinations including Scotland, Rioja, Flanders, Norway, Ireland, Ibiza and Cape Town.
In addition, InchDairnie founder and MD, Ian Palmer, will be present in person at LeBlanq Scotland, as a presenting partner. Taking place on June 23-25, LeBlanq Scotland will see guests ride alongside Sir Chris Hoy, with menus created by Nathan Outlaw and with luxury accommodation at Cameron House.
LeBlanq Scotland costs from £2,495 per rider, or from £1,995 for non-riders sharing a rider’s room. Prices are based on two-sharing, including all riding, meals with paired wines, experiences and accommodation, but not travel.
Ashley Palmer-Watts, LeBlanq co-founder and Directeur Culinaire, said “InchDairnie reflects LeBlanq’s ethos perfectly and we are delighted to have them on board as a global partner.
“Innovative, luxurious, breaking away from the norm and determined to deliver a delicious taste experience are attributes that could be used to describe both brands, and we know our clients are going to love being amongst the first to taste their first pours.”
InchDairnie Distillery Managing Director, Ian Palmer, added “The story behind the time, effort and precision engineering we have put into creating every precious drop of InchDairnie whisky is the kind LeBlanq’s guests are sure to enjoy.
“The pursuit of interesting and refined flavours is what drives us day to day, and this parallel with the chefs of LeBlanq makes this partnership a very natural place for us to be, as we wheel out our first ever whisky from the distillery in April 2023.”
