Make the cold disappear with whisky

Whiskey, whisky or even bourbon makes the winter feel merrier and a little warmer. From now to the end of March, the Tonic Lounge at Hilton Beijing is offering buy-one-get-one selected whiskey and whisky, from Scotland's The Famous Grouse to the Fighting Cock Bourbon from the US. A quick note for foodies: whiskey with an "e" refers to Irish whisky, bourbon and rye, while whisky refers to the specific version of the drink distilled in Scotland. Think champagne and sparking wine!
