The Passport program has always been our most popular and anticipated year culminating event. Sadly, 2020 will prevent us from gathering among the amber lit shelves of Brandy Library, however, we've created the next best thing. Since travel is restricted and indoor dining is again on pause, we’ve kept our destinations a little more “local” than usual. And instead of hopping from destination to destination, this year’s offering is a direct flight (pun intended), each of ten spirits. The first flight is strictly Scotch whisky, while the second is strictly American whiskey. You choose which flight you want. If you decide you want both, we don't blame you (and we won’t rat you out if you don’t quarantine between them)! Upon receipt of your order, we will package each flight in a carefully prepared tasting kit. If you live local, we'll arrange to deliver in person. If you're a little farther away, we'll ship it to you at no additional charge. Once you receive your tasting kits, feel free to take off right away. On the date and time of the ‘ticketed event’ we’ll connect via zoom to sample maybe one or two together, but more importantly, to connect with familiar faces, to raise a glass together, and to say a toast towards a better year ahead.
