March is fast becoming
Whisky month in the nation's capitol. Last week, it was the second annual
WhiskyFest, this week, the third annual
Whisky Live DC; and next week, St. Patrick's Day... Need I say more? We love the location (
Grand Hyatt Washington) and master classes ($25 each, but worth every penny) but what makes WhiskyFest so special, is its intimacy, and how easy it is to navigate once inside. You never have to wait long for a sample, and there are
two buffet tables with all sorts of goodies to keep you busy/sober in between sips, including Four Roses BBQ Breast of Chicken, Golden & Sweet Potato Hash and (my personal favorite) 72-hour Prime Rib Beef Short Ribs with Four Roses Caramelized Leek Glaze.
WhiskyFest returns next year (March again, most likely.) We'll post an exact date & time, as well as additional details/ticket information, later this year. Until then, check out a few photos from last night's festivities.
