Intro to Whisky – A World Whisky Day Event for the Whisky-Curious

To celebrate World Whisky Day, we’re hosting a special event at Backwoods Distilling Co. designed for anyone who’s ever said, “I’m not really a whisky drinker.”

Whether you’re curious, cautious or completely new to the world of whisky, our Intro to Whisky class will guide you from “Not sure” to “One more!” in just 90 minutes. You'll explore four whisky-based drinks, each one gently stepping up in whisky-forwardness, while we break down the basics in a fun, relaxed and approachable way.

What to expect:
– A guided tasting of 4 drinks
– A generous grazing table
– 20% off any whisky purchases on the day
– Bite-sized whisky education (no jargon, just good times)

Details:
📅 Saturday 17 May
🕔 5:00 – 6:30 PM
