Multiple brands were featured during the Whiskey Social tasting event hosted by GoodWorks Entertainment at The Warehouse at Fairfield Theatre Company on March 24. A selection of more than 150 whiskey, rye, scotch, bourbon, rum and mezcal tastes were available for guests, all of whom were there to support the Connecticut Chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Representatives from local craft distilleries and wholesalers poured and showcased a wide range of local, national and imported brands. Bartenders from New Haven’s Ordinary created craft cocktails and The Owl Shop offered cigars for guests in a specially-heated outdoor area. Food was provided by Garelick and Herbs of Southport and Custom Meats of Fairfield.
