Meet the Distillers is our homage to the people and spirits that make the world such an interesting place to drink. In 2016, this annual event returns with a display of craft spirits that’s bigger and better than ever before. More than 50 distillers from across the country and around the world will be serving up their creations neat as The Deltaz, a nationally-touring band from California, fill the room with their own brand of folk, country, blues and rock. Join us for this special Happy Hour as distillers share the secrets behind their craft spirits.  

A special edition Tales of the Cocktail Glencairn Crystal glass will be provided to each guest.
