Greetings My Whisky People,
Mark Kaufmann here. I realize this is the first time I have written an entry into my club website in a very long time! I blame Father Time.
With the last event of the year, Last Call 2020, fast advancing and signaling the end of Winnipeg Whisky Club’s 2nd calendar year(and what an amazing year it was!), it is time to look forward. Massive thanks to all who have had a hand in making this club a success: all of you who read and follow the website and social media; our 43-strong(yeah!!) club members; vendors, distributors, and brand ambassadors helping us get the very best; my club board; and my VP James.
Without further ado, I will outline the details of the two equally important membership packages for WWC 2021.
Standard events: last Wednesday of each month**, 7pm start time. Approximately 80 – 105 ml of whisky from four to seven expressions will be included*
Special events: last Friday of each month**. Start time 6pm. Approximately 105 to 150 ml of whisky will be included from upwards of seven expressions* *members and guests shall pledge to consume whisky within their personal limits.
