First came the beer and then it was wine. Now Harborside is prepping to host Jersey City’s first Whiskey Fest.
On Friday, March 24, the Harborside Atrium will be filled with over 100 styles of single malt and blended Scotch, Irish, bourbon, rye, Tennessee, Japanese, Canadian, and craft-distilled whiskies.
Guests will be able to meet the distillers, master blenders, and other whiskey experts who will be on hand to answer any questions and offer samples.
If you don’t fancy yourself a whiskey person, the festival will also spotlight high-end rum, cognac, and other spirits.
Food will be available for purchase from the Angry Crab, By Suzette Crepes, The Guac Spot, Milk Sugar Love, Glazed & Confused, and Cow & the Curd.
The event runs from 7pm to 10pm at the Harborside Atrium and Waterfront Esplanade. (The entrance to the event will be on 210 Hudson Street). Tickets are $60/pp and include unlimited tastings and a souvenir tasting glass. Use coupon code “JCUPFRONT” to take $15 off the ticket cost. —Whiskey Fest 2017
