HISTORY OF WHISKEY CLASS #3:
WHISKEY AND THE WORLD

Sunday, June 30 – 2:40-4:00 PM
Amber Ox Public House – 525 Prince George St

CLASS & TASTINGS
When a young engineering student decided to take distilling methods he’d learned during his time in Scotland back to his native Japan, it’s impossible that he could have known what he was setting in motion. But just a hundred years later whiskey has gone from being the provenance of a handful of countries to something produced and enjoyed the world over! In this final part of our history of whiskey program we’ll explore the Japanese whiskey industry and learn how they became an inspiration to aspiring distillers all over the world… as well as try some of those whiskies ourselves!

TICKETS
This is the third in a three-part History of Whiskey course being offered throughout the weekend. Classes $40 Tickets are available here.
