Neighbors,
At last! something for the men…The Riverside Gardens Citizens Association is pleased to announce a Bourbon Tasting to help fight the chill of November! This event is a neighborhood fundraiser to raise money for Riverside Gardens Citizens Association events holds throughout the year (Halloween Parade, Oktoberfest, Easter Egg Hunt, Chili Cook-off, Caroling (New this year!), Annual Block Party, National Night Out, and more)!
The event will focus on Bourbons you’ve probably never tried before but that you can actually buy at the VA ABC without having “to know a guy” or paying three times what it should cost by buying it in DC. We’ll explore some of the different types of Bourbon and talk about the many factors that influence how a Bourbon tastes.
The Bourbon Tasting will be held the evening of Saturday, November 16th, starting at 8pm. All proceeds go to fully fund or defray the costs of other neighborhood events.
- Cost is $25 per person. We will be sampling 4-5 Bourbons, depending on our final attendees count. Full registration means more Bourbon. There will be NO walk ups.
- Our max sign up will be 22 with a wait list of another 8 attendees. If the weather cooperates and we can hold the event outside, we will be able to accommodate 30. We will make the call on total capacity the Tuesday before the event (11/12).
- The event will include light snacks, water, and tasting cups. You are free to bring a favorite tasting glass of your own.
- We are fortunate one of our neighbors has volunteered to host. The location will be transmitted to registered attendees. We plan on holding the tasting outside, weather permitting. We will have a fire pit going. If we are outside, attendees should bring camp chairs. In the event of unfavorable weather, the event will be held indoors.
