Virtual Cocktails: Bourbon and Rye 101

Have you ever wondered where and how Bourbon and Rye began in America? Was it the first charred, barrel aged spirit in global history? Join Christophe Bakunas virtually, our spirits expert, as our story begins in 1789 and weaves through the next couple of centuries in our unique American history of distilling brown spirits. Grab your favorite bottle as we shake and stir three cocktails.

To enhance your experience, we recommend you’re using the same spirits as Christophe during class. Reserve your spirits package now that includes Bull Run Bourbon and Journeyman Not a King Rye Whiskey, and indicate when you would like to pick it up at Lincoln Square prior to the class. We'll have it ready when you arrive, and you'll pay for the spirits at pickup. This package is priced at $128.88, and that price includes tax.
