Join fellow Whiskey lovers as we enjoy an entire weekend of Whiskey festivities kicking off Friday with multiple Whiskey tastings around the city and a Bourbon & Burlesque Variety show! Saturday brings the highlight of the weekend, the Grand Tasting at Lodge Geneva National's Aspen Ballroom off Lake Como. There, guests will be able to sample over 150 premium Bourbons & Whiskies from 50+ distilleries of our Club’s choosing with a heavy focus on Bourbon, all while being swept into a Whiskey drinkin’ atmosphere as we are serenaded by Scottish Bagpipes and Live Entertainment! The weekend also includes multiple Bourbon & Whiskey Pairing Dinner options from local restaurants, lively parties and Sunday-Funday festivities with numerous Bourbon tastings at local establishments in downtown Lake Geneva. Plus, a Whiskey Cocktail Contest featured all weekend long by the best watering holes in town. We then finish off the weekend in style with a rockin' Irish Goodbye Closing Party!
