This event keeps growing and growing.... Last year (2010), the Whiskey Tasting sold out two days before the event even began. While most of the seats will be available for purchase in advance online, we're going to hold a limited number of tickets for sale at the door, but the writing is on the wall: Get your tickets early!

This just in from organizer Perry Launius at Wine & Spirits in the Quarter:

"We will have a new speaker that we’ve never had. He is a National Brand Ambassador born in England before relocating to Edinburugh where he discovered the world of Whisky."

"We can also say that we have only poured this many whiskies once in the past and the average bottle price of what we will be pouring is $90 -- and that is the mathematical average."

"Each time we have a brand ambassador speak, they are amazed at the low ticket price we ask for participation in the event. We price it so low because we want this event to be inclusive, rather than exclusive, while still presenting the best of whiskies to new and experienced Tasters alike."

It is important to the organizers of the Tasting and of CelticFest Mississippi that participants drink responsibly. “We always encourage folks to bring a designated driver, and we have gifts just for ‘DD’s’ at the Tasting,” says Lord. “Also, there’s plenty going on to entertain, since CelticFest kicks off at the same time with multiple stages running simultaneously until midnight, hours after the end of the Tasting.”

Features:

  • Special whiskeys and products for 2011
  • The whiskies presented will average together to $90 a bottle!
  • Cheeses, crackers, dips, and such furnished courtesy of Fenian's Irish Pub
  • Exclusive give-aways for this event
  • A firm grounding on the process of distilling and insight into what makes each spirit distinct.
