Saddle Up and Sip - A Bourbon Tasting and Derby Preview

A Run for the Roses, Sip for the Ages! Featuring Phil Kollin from Phil Talks Whiskey and Ed DeRosa from Horse Racing Nation.

Just for an evening of whiskey and horse wagering. It'll be a night of high spirits and high stakes as we take a detailed look at the world of bourbon and betting. A unique bourbon tasting event with a look ahead at the 151st running of The Kentucky Derby. This one features a special guest speaker with horse racing expert Ed DeRosa and a flight of pours you'd want to see at any finish line!

We will sip through four great pours of Kentucky Bourbon all while talking about the world of Whiskey, Thoroughbred Horses and Wagering. Between pours, Ed will share insights and stories from the track while Phil will dive deep into history and more of each pour of some of Kentucky’s finest bourbons.
