Freida was joined by Ewan Gunn, Diageo Global Whisky Master, who hosted a whisky appreciation session for Johnie Walker, Black and White, Black Dog and Vat 69 and highlighted the craftsmanship behind the flavours and blends that make the Scotch whisky best in the world. Gunn also emphasised it is a myth that Scotch is only a men's drink and added that "quality over quantity" should be the way to enjoy drinking and echoed Freida's thought of enjoying it responsibly.

"It's my dad's favourite and when I say that people think it's mostly what old men drink, but no," said the actress while expressing her love for Scotch. "My dad has got a great sense of humour so it's not a boring drink. I do like on the rocks, on a rare or happy occasion but my favourite cocktail is 'old fashioned'," she said. The actress said she enjoys her sister's company while drinking.
