3. St. Patty’s Day Not Complete Without Whiskey Tasting March 17

Picture 1Once the green beer filled parade festivities are over, it would be nice to spend your St. Patrick’s Day learning…. about whisky. Join the “Master of Whiskey in New England,” Brad Jarvis, for a special Irish Whiskey Tasting on St. Patrick’s Day. As an expert, Brad Jarvis will introduce the contrasting flavors between the two major styles of the Southern and Northern regions of Ireland and explain the subtle differences between blended, pure pot still style (the only whiskey variant still made exclusively in Ireland), peated and in-peated, single malts, and much more. Take a taste tour of various whiskies spanning several regions from a single table all while serving up the finest whiskeys New England and the world as to offer.

3. Kilts & Whiskey at Queen Mary Fest Feb. 13-14

Picture 14We all get excited about men in kilts, but a haggis-eating contest is really a sight to see at the Queen Mary Scottish Festival. A tribute to the heritage of Queen Mary, this festival will be rocking with music, crafts and highland dancing. The event commences Friday night with a Men of Worth concert and gets even more interesting at the Whiskey Tasting event Saturday evening. Those that want to show off their athletic chops can partake in the Tossing the Caber or the Sheep Herding competition. Saturday night closes with Plaidpalooza and the Los Angeles Scots Pipe Band taking center stage.
