Taste 5 unique global whiskies to celebrate International Whisk(e)y Day with a guided flight, history, science, and a paired snack.

International Whisk(e)y Day (March 27th) deserves more than a casual pour—it deserves a passport.

Whisk(e)y Flight Around The World is a guided, professional-style tasting designed for curious beginners, serious enthusiasts, and industry pros who want sharper tasting skills and deeper context. You’ll explore five distinct whiskies from five different whisk(e)y traditions around the world, learning how climate, grain, fermentation, distillation, aging, and cask influence shape aroma, texture, and finish.

This is not a “sip-and-nod” situation. You’ll be coached through how to nose, how to taste, how to identify structure and balance, and how to describe what you’re experiencing with confidence—the way professionals do it. Along the way, we’ll connect each pour to its history, regional identity, and the science of its flavor.

Your ticket includes:

  • A five-whisk(e)y guided flight (international selection)
  • A professional tasting lesson (nose, palate, finish, texture, structure)
  • Science + history for each whisk(e)y style and region
  • A paired snack curated to complement the flight
  • A class handout with tasting notes, key concepts, and education highlights
  • Seating capped at 18 guests for a true guided experience


This class is for whiskey lovers ready to move beyond “smooth” and build real tasting confidence, as well as curious newcomers who want an approachable, guided entry point into the world of whisk(e)y. If you like your learning flavorful, your facts neat, and your pours intentional, this tasting was made for you.
