The annual festival hits the road for the first time, stopping in BC.
Think you can call yourself a drink aficionado?
Unless you’ve attended Tales of the Cocktail, think again. But now’s your chance. After eight years of being held exclusively in New Orleans, this annual festival for industry people and drink lovers alike is going on a road trip, making a stop in Vancouver, BC.
Held March 13-15 at the Fairmont Pacific Rim, Tales of the Cocktail on Tour will feature six seminars hosted by some of the most respected minds on mixology from our neighbor to the north, as well as a series of events to keep the drinks flowing throughout the weekend.
The inaugural on-tour seminars include the following:
Famous New Orleans Cocktails
Led By Chris McMillan and Philip Greene
Who’s Your Daddy? A Mai Tai Paternity Test
Led by Jeff Berry
For the Love of Gin
Led by Desmond Payne and Dan Warner
The Science of Cocktails: New Techniques Behind the Bar
