Created by Moray College UHI, in partnership with Gordon & MacPhail, the 20 hour online course can be studied anytime, anywhere with internet access.

The course leads to a Moray College UHI/Gordon & MacPhail certificate and costs £195.
It is open to anyone over 18 years old (age restrictions for the consumption of alcohol may differ in overseas markets) with an interest in Scotch whisky and may particularly appeal to those working in the whisky, hospitality, leisure and tourism or retail industries.
