Whiskey Obsession Festival - Sarasota

How much do you really know about everyone's favorite spirit? Mark Twain famously said "Too much of anything is bad, but too much of a good whiskey is barely enough." Humphrey Bogart's last words were "I should have never switched from scotch to martinis." George Bernard Shaw called whiskey "liquid sunshine." Everyone agrees that "Whiskey, like a beautiful woman, demands appreciation" (Haruki Murakami) - and almost every continent has its own unique brand. But did you know the word Whiskey is an anglicized mispronunciation of a Gaelic word meaning "Water of Life"? Originally known as "Uisce Beatha" (sometimes spelled Ischabaha), this legendary Malted barley has captured the hearts and the palates of all libation connoisseurs - who will all be gathered in one place March 26th & 27th! Taste, talk, listen and learn at the Whiskey Obsession Festival, where spirits will be high all weekend long!
