Do you love whiskey? Do you enjoy whiskey but don’t understand what all the fuss is about? Perhaps you are new to the spirit and just want to sample? The Flatiron Room has an elective course just for whiskey lovers. Get schooled at The Flatiron Room’s Whiskey School in a Whiskey 101 class.  

Students will learn such unique whiskey concepts as the role of peat in whiskey-making, chill filtration, Scotland’s whiskey-producing regions, how to nose and taste, evaluation, and even how to pronounce Gaelic words. Enjoy signature cocktails, six drams of whiskey, and light appetizers while in class.

This class is for all levels of whiskey connoisseurs and taught by Heather Green, New York’s first official whiskey Sommelier and Director of Whiskey Education. All classes are held in an upstairs tasting room specially designed for this event. The room features a 16-foot black walnut tasting table, moderator podium, projection screen, sound-proofed curtains, and a separate PA system.

Tickets are $85 per person and can be purchased online. Classes start promptly at 7 PM, so be sure to arrive early so you won’t disrupt the class after it starts. Tickets are non-refundable, but can be transferred to friends, family, and colleagues if necessary. See website for details and for info about elective classes focused around other fine spirits.
