11th Annual New York WhiskyFest 2008
October 16th, 2008 by Perry
East Coasters, WhiskyFest is coming to the Big Apple November 11th, 2008 from 6:30-10pm. A few of the top notch 20-years aged and older whiskies will be featured at the festival, like Willett 25-year-old Straight Rye Whisky and Parker’s Heritage Collection 2nd edition.
The event will feature more than 200 of the world’s finest, rarest, and most expensive, single malt and blended Scotch, Irish, bourbon, Tennessee, Japanese, Welsh, Canadian and other whiskies from around the world to sample in one Grand Ballroom. There will also be high-end rums, tequilas and beer.
The focus is on education, and many distillery representatives will be on hand at the pouring booths to explain how the whiskies are made. Attendees will also enjoy an expansive gourmet buffet all evening and will receive a commemorative Glencairn whisky glass.
Whisky drinkers with a more discriminating palate might want to check it out. Get your tickets now!
