Join us for an evening of bourbon history, lore and of course, sampling!

Tim Knittel is a former Kentucky bourbon industry insider with over a decades experience in bourbon education. He is also a certified Stave & Thief Society Executive Bourbon Steward (often compared to a Bourbon Sommelier) which is the highest classification available for a professional bourbon educator. Tim will be serving up 4 straight bourbons, some which you’re familiar with and some not, while the chefs at the Christopher Conference Center will be pairing each one with a course of food.

Dinner is served at 8.

This event WILL SELL OUT! MENU TBA

In addition to the tasting menu, several other bourbons will be available at the bonus tasting. VIP tickets are $25 more and include a VIP only flight of three additional bourbons.  Bonus tasting will be available by the glass beginning at 7PM. A small silent auction of bourbons unavailable in our area will take place prior to the tasting. Free cab rides are available, as are special room rates at the Christopher Inn. Call 800-257-7042 for reservations.

We will also be raffling a bottle of Old Rip Van Winkle 10 year old bourbon. You need not be present at the dinner to bid on the silent auction or purchase raffle tickets.

 

All proceeds benefit the education programs of The Scioto Society.

Henry V is Shakespeare’s most famous “war play”; it includes the storied English victory over the French at Agincourt. Some of it glorifies war, especially the choruses and Henry’s speeches urging his troops into battle. But we also hear bishops conniving for war to postpone a bill that would tax the church, and soldiers expecting to reap profits from the conflict. Even in the speeches of Henry and his nobles, there are many chilling references to the human cost of war.
Shakespeare on Sugarloaf is a major program of the Scioto Society, Inc, to bring professional quality Shakespeare to Southern Ohio audiences for free.
