The holiday season is a special time of year and the whisky you drink should be just as special. There are a lot of really good whiskies, but I wanted our last tasting of 2013 to be truly special.
That’s why we are doing a tasting of The Balvenie for our December tasting. We will be tasting 5 of The Balvenie whiskies plus a sixth whisky. The evening will be moderated by The Balvenie Brand Ambassador, David Laird. We’ll be at a new venue – Ri Ra Irish Pub, in Downtown Providence. The tasting will be December 10th from 7-9pm. Here’s the full lineup for the evening:
- Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt Whisky
- The Balvenie Doublewood 12 Year Old
- The Balvenie Single Barrel 12 Year Old
- The Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 year Old
- The Balvenie Doublewood 17 Year Old
- The Balvenie Portwood 21 Year Old
Tickets are $30 and are available for purchase at Bottles Fine Wine in Providence. As always, we’ll be serving light appetizers and having our end of the evening raffle to raise money for Operation Stand Down Rhode Island – benefiting homeless veterans (so bring plenty of cash). So far with your support we’ve managed to raise almost $1,300 for OSDRI – thank you very much for your past generosity.
As with almost all of our tastings I expect this one to sell out very quickly. So don’t delay – hopefully I’ll see you there for what promises to be a great finish to 2013. -t
