WhiskyFest Comes to Chicago May 12th

WhiskyFest comes to Chicago on Friday, May 12th. The event takes place at the Hyatt Regency Chicago (151 E Wacker Dr), running from 5:30-9:30pm with VIP entrance at 5:30pm and the Grand Tasting starting at 6:30pm. 

The festival, which also takes place in San Francisco, New York and Las Vegas later this year, offers the opportunity to sample hundreds of whiskies from around the world—including single malt and blended Scotch, Irish, bourbon, rye, Tennessee, Japanese, Canadian, and craft-distilled whiskies. Distillery representatives will be on hand at their pouring booths, while educational seminars, featuring their own tastings, will be running throughout the evening as well.

Entrance to the event includes, access to the grand tasting, all seminars (on a first come first serve basis), a commemorative Glencairn crystal nosing glass, gift bag, program booklet and pen, and hundreds of whiskies to sample.
