JUST ANNOUNCED 01.22.18: Local distillers, American Freedom Distillery, has confirmed their participation in the upcoming Winter Whiskeyfest with their Horse Soldiers Bourbon Whiskey! The brand is based off of the Horse Soldiers, a handful of American Special Operations forces who were sent into Afghanistan as part of Operation Enduring Freedom after 9/11. Their story, including one of the distillery’s proprietors, has been adapted into a movie, “12 Strong,” starring Chris Hemsworth, and currently showing in theaters nationwide.
Tickets are limited, with room for only 250 of our closest friends and fans. Get yours here.
To quote Mark Twain, “Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough.” Well, here in the Burg, we have too much sunshine, not actually a problem, and never enough whiskey, enter our inaugural Winter Whiskeyfest. Of course, when we say winter in Florida what we mean is lows in the 70’s and, to us, that’s perfect whiskey weather.
