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

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 4th 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, while we feel the impact of the July 4th election has on England!

Post-Traitors Day & Post-Election Day tasting July 10th Meat & Wine Co

The Meat & Wine Co is home to epic steaks and perfect grilling. Our AGED events there are tremendous.

For Post -Traitors, and Post - Election, Day we take a more frugal approach to change. Revolution & new government often mean a buttoning down of the hatches for a period, as well as celebration for some.  

Supper: One course, Chicken Skewers in this fabulous restaurant.

5 dram tastings:
To the victor goes the spoils!

3 award winning Whiskeys from Uncle Nearest including the World's Best Tennesses Whiskey 2003 and one that is not available outside of the USA!

 2 hosts 
The legendary, Uncle Nearest UK & EU Market Manager, Matt Neal will guide you through their epic drams, whilst our very own tasting guru, Paul, will work his magic with  the English whisky.
