A $25,000 Scotch Whisky Adds Heat to Coronation Fever

Raise a glass! Our Bloomberg Pursuits London correspondent got her invitation to the Abbey.

Charles is getting crowned here, and I got a private tour.

Hello, it’s Sarah Rapp, luxury reporter here in London. My name’s on the list. I received an exclusive invite to Westminster Abbey, England’s coronation church since 1066.

No, I haven’t made the cut for King Charles III’s actual big day (shockingly, American correspondents in London aren’t high enough on Buckingham Palace’s invite list). But I did head to a black-tie event at the very space Charles will be crowned on May 6 to sample a $25,000 whisky being released in his honor. The things we do at Pursuits, for you, dear reader.
