Evening of Insight into Lindores Abbey Distillery.
Jun 23 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm

Attention all Whisky lovers.

We are delighted to welcome Lindores Abbey distillery to the Fraserburgh Lighthouse Museum, Thursday 23rd June, where we will be joined by brand ambassador Murray Stevenson. 

Lindores Abbey in Fife is said to be ‘The Spiritual Home of Scotch Whisky’. 

Distilling was taking place on this site as early as 1494, and we know this because of the earliest written reference to scotch Whisky (Or Aqua Vitae, as it was then known), which appears in the Exchequer roll of the same year. 

On the night we will take our journey back to the beginning of whisky, as we kick off with some Aqua Vitae, and we work our way through Lindores Abbey’s ever growing range. 

Line up will include:

Aqua Vitae and Ginger Ale welcome drink. 

Lindores New Make Spirit 63.5% ABV

Lindores MCDXIV (1494) Whiskey 46% ABV 

The casks of Lindores, Bourbon Casks 49.4% ABV 

The Casks of Lindores, STR Wine Barriques  49.4% ABV

Distillery Exclusive Sherry Butt Single Cask 60% ABV

Celebrating our very own “Magnificent Showman” Zippos Circus founder Martin Burton’s 50 years entertaining families, the all-new 2024 production “Magnificent!” sees brand new routines from firm favourites within the Zippo core company whilst introducing new guest stars in a magnificent show that will delight and thrill family audiences.

The magnificent acrobat and comedy star PAULO DOS SANTOS will again be your host throughout the circus adventure and is joined by a fabulous cast of co-stars!

From South America, we welcome to Zippos the magnificent aerial maestro ALEX MICHAEL with his daring solo flying trapeze act that includes a death-defying upside-down walk in the very roof of the Big Top that’s guaranteed to have audiences on the edge of their seats.

From Ukraine, we are delighted to include the magnificent mayhem of LA LOKA – an exceptional female clown making her first appearance on tour with Zippos. She will provide fun-filled moments for adults and children alike throughout the show. Watch out for her magnificent manipulation of hula-hoops; her comic approach not disguising an incredible talent!

Those magnificent, mighty MONGOLIAN WARRIORS are back by popular demand and this year present a brand-new sensational springboard act that sees the troupe hurtling through the air!

The Zippos magnificent MOTOR-BIKERS return with new surprises to the Globe of Thrills including for the first time PAULO DOS SANTOS joining in the adrenaline-filled routine!
