On 24th and 25th January, The Lost Close invites you to experience Burns Night in a way few ever will - an intimate evening of Scottish heritage, exceptional whiskies, and captivating storytelling in two of Edinburgh’s most exclusive private spaces.
What to Expect:
- Bagpipe Welcome & Fizz Reception – Guests arrive at 6pm to the sound of the pipes before being escorted to the venue for a sparkling welcome.
- Address to a Haggis – Witness the iconic Robert Burns poem performed by a traditional bagpiper as the haggis is ceremonially presented.
- Rare Whisky Pairings – Between courses, a whisky expert from The Lost Close will guide guests through a tasting of four exceptional Scotch whiskies.
- Three-Course Meal – Enjoy a menu of hearty classics: warming soup, haggis pie with trimmings, and sticky toffee pudding.
