Adam Degenstein of Horse Drawn Okanagan and his horses Doc and John will give a walking plow demonstration as part of a new event Saturday, Sept. 28, at Black Isle Farms on Enderby-Grindrod Road. The afternoon will feature Clydesdales, wagon rides, scotch tasting and Scottish-themed appetizers (haggis not included).

A change of the seasons brings about a toast at an Enderby Clydesdale farm from a North Okanagan company.

Horse Drawn Okanagan is hosting a new event at Black Isle Farms, a 200-acre hay farm and home to a small herd of Clydesdales, on Saturday, Sept. 28.

The tasting will be led by Andrew Laird of Okanagan Spirits. He will guide guests through the different qualities of each of the four scotch samples with a blind tasting. The selection includes scotch from the Highlands, Islay, and Orkney Island regions, and the Okanagan.

"Everyone will come away with a thorough understanding of each scotch, including the origin, type, colour, complexity etc. as well as what flavours you can expect when sampling scotch such as peaty, citrus, smoky, floral or spicy," said event coordinator Kelly MacIntosh of Horse Drawn Okanagan. "Note cards will also be provided."

Not only is there going to be a selection of four single malts, but guests will also enjoy a horse drawn wagon ride with the Clydesdales around the farm and to the oat field where a station will be set up for the tastings.

Don MacLeod of North Okanagan Pipes and Drums will delight guests with a bagpipe performance. Adam Degenstein and his horses Doc and John, will provide a walking plow demonstration at the site where oats have recently been harvested. And of course, Scottish-themed appetizers will be served out of a vintage horse trailer bar.

MacIntosh said part of Horse Drawn Okanagan's mandate is to keep traditions alive through use of draft horses.

"But as a group, we all seem to love many cherished Scottish traditions, so we91裸聊视频檝e brought together a few of those in this event," she said. "I91裸聊视频檇 like to say a special thank you to our hosts, Ken and Kara McNair, for opening their farm to the public.91裸聊视频 

Farm gates open at 3 p.m. (if you91裸聊视频檇 like to watch the horses be harnessed), wagons depart at 4 p.m., and the event wraps up when the sun goes down.
