About this event
Pull up a seat for an afternoon dedicated to the craft and history of bourbon and whiskey. This is a guided class as much as a tasting — you’ll learn how these spirits are made, what sets a rye apart from a bourbon, how barrel selection shapes flavor, and how to actually taste and talk about what’s in your glass. Along the way, we’re pouring four standout expressions side by side: The Volstead’s own Whistlepig barrel selection, the FEW Spirits “Sydney’s Pick” single barrel, plus 2 undisclosed pours — four very different takes on great American whiskey in one afternoon. You’ll get guided tasting notes, the story behind each pick, and the kind of hands-on education that makes you a well informed buyer and a more confident consumer. Whether you’re deep into the bourbon world or just getting curious, you’ll leave knowing exactly what you like and why! Seats are limited. Grab yours before they’re gone. $50 per ticket. 🥃 Tuesday, August 25th | 1–4 PM | The Volstead
