The love stories behind the biggest whisky brands (BYOB)
December 22 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Discover the juicy love tales that sparked the world’s biggest whisky brands—sip and spill online with us!
Join us online for a beautiful storytelling session: The Love Stories Behind the World’s Most Iconic Whisk(e)y Brands.
Whisky isn’t just about barley, barrels, and oceans of time – it’s about people. Passion. Devotion. And the unforgettable love stories that shaped some of the greatest spirits ever made.
Did you know that Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese whisky, traveled to Scotland in 1918 to study distilling — and fell in love not only with Scotch, but with a Scottish woman named Rita Cowan, who became his partner, muse, and the quiet force behind Nikka?
Or that Four Roses takes its name from a romantic gesture, a man declaring his love with four roses worn close to the heart?
And of course, Laphroaig , a distillery whose history is filled with perseverance, dramatic family rivalries, and the pioneering leadership of Bessie Williamson, the first female distillery manager of the 20th century and the woman who carried the distillery through war, innovation, and global fame.
These stories shaped the bottles we love today… and tonight, we’re diving into all of them!
Bring your favorite pour, settle into something cozy, and join me for an evening of romance, history, and the spirited love affairs that shaped the whisky world.
