Around Christmas 2015 CaskAid, in collaboration with master chocolate-maker Balerdon from Sint-Niklaas, presented the ultimate whisky and chocolate experience pairing 4 exclusive whiskies and 4 artisanal pralines in the name of our charity project Bone4Kids. This unique taste experience is sadly sold out at the moment but a new edition will follow later in 2016 so keep tuned to our website or facebook for more news on this topic.
