The pandemic, in one particular way it has impacted the whiskey industry, is to put a hold on most whiskey events such as large scale tastings and expos. What can has turned online in an attempt to allow lovers to virtually experience such outings is increasingly happening, which is precisely what a new group called The Dram Good Laddies has planned for this coming Monday.
As part of the overall functionality of this online expo, there will be “virtual expo booths to learn more about these whiskies, event live chat function so you can ask questions and engage with our panel as well as a whisky meet and greet room where you can live video chat with other whisky lovers.”
For those who want to participate along with the specific whiskies being tasted, the list by ambassador is as follows:
