The Whiskey & Watches Masterclass
The collaboration between the Luxury Group and Sotheby’s also offers exclusive VIP brand access to events such as private masterclasses held in Luxury Group properties. This includes The Whiskey & Watches Masterclass, where guests will be able to see some of the rarest American whiskeys in the world, as well as a single collection of some of the world’s most luxurious timepieces.
The conclusion of the masterclasses will signal an expansion in the Luxury Group and Sotheby’s partnership, which will see further Luxury Sales in New York City this December.
