Around the World of Whiskey with Melissa G. from ImpEx

For those of you who are experienced whiskey globe trotters or for those who've always wanted to be, we have a selection of whiskeys from around the world to sample! Join us Tuesday, November 17th from 7:00-8:30PM, in partnership with Melissa Ginzburg of ImpEx Beverages hosted at Merlin's Rest Pub!
You may remember her as a favorite host from our first Scotchtober event last October. Join us this time as we learn about some lesser known whiskey producing regions! This will be a blind tasting, so join us, and trust Melissa to bring you to each whiskey destination with her signature combination of knowledge and passion!

About the Merlin's Rest Pub: Our traditional establishment embodies the noblest of British Isles Institutions: the local pub. Historically, the public house is an abode of welcome to all who come in search of solace, sustenance, and a drop of good cheer. Free from the gaze of the television’s all-numbing eye, the conversation is king. Merriment, music and a little of Merlin's magic ease the cares of the day towards the pleasures of the evening. Whether your needs are a good meal, a glass of fine wine, a tipple of malt whiskey, or merely a pint or two and a chat with the locals, Merlins Rest Pub is your “home away from home” — just bring your heart.


On-street parking is available.
Women and non-binary folks only, please. All women are welcome!
