Pre-Traitors Day & Pre-Election Day tasting July 3rd

Post-Traitors Day & Post-Election Day tasting July 10th

A friend of mine once called American Independence Day “Traitors Day”. Controversial I know, but it was said as satire, and it tickled me. I always said I would use it one day and now I have!

It tickled me, because one man’s traitor is another man’s Freedom Fighter and they are only traitors if they lose. They did not lose, which made July 4^th a successful revolution!

Rival views in politics can often bring conflict, so I thought we should bring the two together and look at the impact the American Revolution had on whisky, with a Bourbon & Whisky Tasting, whilst we wait to see the impact July 4^th will have on England fate!

Two separate tastings.
Two venues different
Two dates:

1. Pre-Traitors Day & Pre-Election Day July 3^rd at The Stablehand.
OR
2. Post-Traitors Day & Post-Election Day tasting July 10^th Meat & Wine Co

Samuel Pepys described The Pub as “The heart of England”, and pubs are quintessentially English, so we’re heading to The Stablehand pub in Lancaster Gate, which has ties to Winston Churchill and other English Prime Ministers.
