The Spirits Confidential event at Evergreen Brick Works was a spirit lover’s delight with tons of fine spirits and cocktails to sample including whisky, tequila and vodka. Many Master Distillers of the brands in the spirits world came from afar to be there including Fred Noe, Great Grandson of Jim Beam. There was also Karina Sanchez hailing all the way from Tequila, Mexico representing Casa Sauza tequila. Food trucks were there represented by Woodfire Pizza, Beach Boys and Gourmet Bitches as well as fresh oysters from Oyster Boy.
It was an amazing opportunity with complimentary admission for the public to attend with a suggested charitable donation to Evergreen. One of the best highlights included being able to dip your own personal Maker’s Mark whisky bottle into the official Maker’s Mark hot red wax and take the bottle home, too.
