Whiskey Wars Tour and Tasting

November 30, 2019 @ 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Whiskey Wars Tour

Award-winning whiskey, historical facts, and local lore converge on the Whiskey Wars Tour and Tasting! Starting at BLDG 92, visitors will get a crash course in BNY history from 1801 to the present with a quick stop in the exhibition Brooklyn Navy Yard: Past, Present & Future. This introduction sets the stage for a deep-dive into an American classic with a Brooklyn flair…learning about whiskey from the experts at Kings County Distillery (KCD)! Once at KCD, visitors will learn about the whiskey wars scandals of the nineteenth century, the effect of prohibition on whiskey in the United States, and visitors will also get a chance to see the distilling process by visiting KCD’s barrel room and distilling floor. Although incorporating traditional methods such as copper pot distilling, KCD also embraces a new age “spirit” with their experimentation. A sip of tradition or experimentation included with the tour!
