SUMMARY:Specters and Spirits
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a haunted ghost tour and whiskey tasting!\n\nFor those that are not yet aware\, the streets of New Hope are notoriously haunted – quite possibly the most haunted town in America!  \nLocated along the scenic Delaware River\, New Hope has history dating back to before the Revolutionary war. The town’s history and that of American whiskey in Pennsylvania parallel in many ways. Let’s discover where their stories cross. Each whiskey is thoughtfully paired with each of the six haunted sites on the tour. (Each pairing will involve what may have been historically accurate or what may have been available at the local tavern when each spirit lived and walked these very streets…) \nPerhaps the thirsty specters of New Hope will join us for a sip…

SUMMARY:Compass Box Scotch Whisky Tasting at Fairways Golf Club
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve never tried Compass Box whiskies\, you’re in for delicious event! \nJoin the Dram Devotees of Bucks County as we taste our way through some of the most impressive\, modern scotch whiskies available. Compass Box is a blending house that is modeled after the Scottish blending houses of old. What began in the 1840’s with Andrew Usher II blending grain and malt whisky in Edinburgh\, Scotland\, became a movement of establishing blending houses in the 1870’s by men like Chivas\, Ballantine\, Walker and Dewar in London\, England. These men revolutionized scotch whiskey and men like John Glaser of Compass Box (with their Blending Room also in London) are continuing that tradition today. \nIn an industry that has steadfastly remained committed to ‘the way we’ve always done things’\, Compass Box focuses relentlessly on creativity\, process innovations\, and exploring the many ways we all can enjoy the pleasures of Scotch whisky. \nIf we consider a single malt whisky to be the whisky equivalent of a solo musician\, then a blend can be compared to an orchestra. A blend is a precise taste reproduction every time\, and that precision requires incredibly talented and well-respected nosers and tasters from the whisky industry. We will discuss this skill and use a nosing kit to help distinguish flavor and scent profiles from the whisky we taste together. Bring your tasting journal to keep notes! \n1. Great King Street Blended Scotch Whisky- Artist’s Blend\n2. Oak cross Blended Malt Scotch Whisky\n3. The Spice Tree Blended Malt Scotch Whisky\n4. Orangerie- The Scotch Whisky Infusion\n5. Asyla Blended Scotch Whisky\n6. The Peat Monster Blended Malt Scotch Whisky\n(perhaps some surprises) \n*Each guest will be given a Glencairn glass to take home (worth $10) as well as information packets about the whiskies we taste.\n*There will be giveaways and drawings for Compass Box goodies.\n*Two lucky guests will be win $25 gift certificates for Fairway Golf Course to apply toward a round of golf or the tavern!

SUMMARY:Tasting the Six Regions of Scotland- An Exploration of Single Malts
DESCRIPTION:Want to know more about single malt scotch? Here’s your opportunity.  There are no other tastings quite like this\, because usually a tasting is hosted by a representative of an umbrella corporation that owns specific brands/distilleries. The Dram Devotees get to pick from all over the map\, literally!  We’ve chosen some beautiful malt whiskies from each of the six distilling regions of Scotland. \nThere are 6 recognized distilling regions of Scotland. \n– The Highlands \n– The Lowlands \n– Speyside \n– The Islands \n– Cambeltown \n– Islay \nLet the confusion begin!  There were originally just four main regions (Highlands\, Lowlands\, Islay\, and Campbeltown)\, but the Islands and Speyside are generally accepted as sub-divisions of the Highlands\, which is the largest.  Though Speyside is now recognized by the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA) as a distinct region\, the Islands are not.  This does not exclude them from the list\, however\, because most “scotch folks” agree that the Islands deserve their own category. \nMost people will tell you that the regions display certain flavor characteristics\, and they would usually be correct in their assumption.  The problem with assuming is that there are too many exceptions to the rule.  Scotch does not follow rules.  There are examples of what wine enthusiasts would call “terroir”\, and a good deal of scotch production is based on tradition\, but modern styles don’t fit neatly into categories.  The only absolute rule is that scotch is always from Scotland. \nLet’s look into these distilling regions through our palates by tasting one bottle from each of the six.  We will not be tasting any blends this time around\, just single malts.  (The character of a distillery lies in their own distinct whiskies.)  We will discuss the history of the regions\, what makes them distinct\, and what each bottle reveals about that region. \nOur tasting will include the following: \nLowlands – Auchentoshan American Oak \nHighlands – Glengoyne 10 year \nSpeyside – G&M Mortlach 15 yr. \nIslands – Highland Park 15 yr. \nCampeltown – Springbank 10 yr. \nIslay – Bunnahabhain 12 yr. \n*There will also be light snacks available for pairing\, giveaways\, promotions and more! \nAfter the tasting\, please join us for cigars on the patio of the Fairways Golf Club.  Hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Bottled in Bond Whiskey Tasting
DESCRIPTION:This event is only available to members until Monday.  Hope to see you there! \nJoin us at Bowman’s Tavern for an in-depth look at what makes “Bottled in Bond” so desirable on a whiskey label.  Find out why we are living in the greatest era for whiskey production and how this label distinction helped bring about a whiskey renaissance. \nIn 1897\, the United States Congress passed the Bottled in Bond Act.  It was in response to the widespread adulteration of whiskey that had begun to compromise the reputation of the quality and safety of American whiskey.  Why was it necessary?  Who were the men that pushed Congress for our first consumer protection law?  Why is this label distinction important almost 120 years later? \nThese whiskeys are the best value whiskeys on the market.  They are straight whiskeys in the purest sense\, and at 100 proof\, hold up to any cocktail recipe.   Bartenders swear by these bourbons and rye whiskeys because of their solid foundations and their flavor quality.  We will sample 6 very underrated whiskeys and discuss the history\, the distillers behind them\, and flavor profiles of each. \n1.  Mellow Corn Bottled in Bond Corn Whiskey \n2.  Evan Williams Bottled in Bond Bourbon Whiskey \n3.  Rittenhouse Rye Bottled in Bond Rye Whiskey \n4.  Jim Beam Bottled in Bond Bourbon Whiskey \n5.  Henry McKenna Bottled in Bond Bourbon Whiskey \n6.  E.H.Taylor Bottled in Bond Straight Rye Whiskey

SUMMARY:Variations on Whiskey- A Diverse Tasting Event
DESCRIPTION:What makes one whiskey so different from another? Is there really as much variety in whiskey as there is in beer? Yes. \n\nI’ve been playing with the idea of hosting a tasting like this for a while. I want to showcase the very large differences that exist from one whisk(e)y to the next. The common perception is that all whiskey is the same – some good\, some very good. In this tasting\, we will explore the idea that whiskey is just as diverse a product (if not\, more so) as beer or wine. \n\nIn fact\, whiskey is made from fermented grains – also known as beer. The foundation of whiskey can be as varied as India Pale Ale or Stout and the final product more so. I often say “whiskey is what beer wants to be when it grows up.” From its beer roots\, whiskey variety explodes into tastes that can be bold\, subtle\, sophisticated\, nuanced and surprising. \n\nWhiskey can be made from any grain. It can be blended\, flavored\, cut with rock candy\, aged for varying lengths of time in barrels made from different types of white oak with different char levels\, finished in various types of previously used casks\, and bottled from single barrels\, small batches or large vats. It can be filtered or unfiltered\, diluted with either water or other grain spirits (but not below 40% ABV)\, made anywhere in the world in different climates and at different elevations and can be influenced by many types of yeast strains. The diversity that exists in whiskey is only limited by the fact that it must be made from grain and/or by the creativity of the distiller. \n\nLet’s explore some interesting whiskeys that are vastly different from one another. We will be focusing mainly on the variety that comes from distilling and aging techniques over additives\, flavorings or blends (at least this time!). Join the Dram Devotees of Bucks County to dissect 6 very different whisk(e)ys! There will be raffles and give-aways\, including golf course gift cards\, tavern discounts\, glassware\, etc. and small bites\, to boot. Hang out after the tasting for cigars on the porch! \n\n1. Alberta Rye Whisky Dark Batch \n2. Charbay R5 Hop Flavored Whiskey \n3. Glenlivet Nadurra Single Malt Scotch Whisky \n4. Eagle Rare Bourbon Whiskey \n5. Brenne French Single Malt Whisky \n6. Laphroaig Single Malt Scotch Whisky

SUMMARY:Bourbon Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Bourbons are booming! Those big Kentucky distilleries that hung on through the 70’s are finally reaping their reward for their patience- The distillers themselves hung on financially and the whiskey waited patiently in its barrels. Where were you 10 years ago when that bottle of Booker’s was being barreled? What troubles did Jim Rutledge\, the distiller emeritus at Four Roses Distillery\, go through to bring us the good stuff that until 10 years ago was only available in Japan? What’s a non-distiller producer? What’s the difference between a single barrel bourbon and small batch? All the questions and many more we will discuss and answer together. \nLet’s taste 5 bourbons together- \n1. Breckenridge Bourbon Whiskey\n2. 1792 Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey\n3. Four roses Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey\n4. Jefferson’s Bourbon Whiskey\n5. Booker’s Bourbon Whiskey
