What a day. This past Sunday, we gathered in LA for a Father’s Day tasting to remember — 9 incredible Scotch whiskies, and even better company. Thank you to everyone who came out, asked thoughtful questions, shared stories, and sipped something special with us.

Events like this remind us what The Whiskey Lab is really about: bringing people together around rare whisky and shared discovery.

Until next time — slàinte! 🥃

Happy Father’s Day. To the ones who’ve taught us patience, presence, and how to enjoy the finer things in life—today we raise a glass.

This bottle is something special. A 27-year-old Bowmore, bottled by Tri Carragh, drawn from a single cask and limited to just 144 bottles worldwide. Only two remain in the U.S.—and one could be yours.

To the father who appreciates rarity and quiet complexity, this is the dram worthy of the moment.

Explore it now.

Excited to announce a series of summer Scotch whisky events with The Whiskey Lab—each one special in its own way.

First up, California:
On Father’s Day weekend, we’ll host our inaugural tasting event in Los Angeles, featuring 9 distinctive Scotch whiskies. From vibrant Speysides to the rare 27-year-old Bowmore, it’s the perfect way to celebrate dads, whisky lovers, and great company.

Next, Auburn, NY—my hometown:
On July 2, I’m returning to Springside Inn for a tasting that means a lot to me personally. We’ll pour 9 unique single casks, share stories, and bring a world of whisky to friends and family in the place where my journey began.

And in July, Washington, DC:
We’re partnering with UChicago alumni for a private tasting in the DC alumni office. It’s a chance to connect with fellow Maroons over some of the best cask strength and single cask Scotch out there.

If you’re interested in joining any of these events—or want to bring a tasting to your own group—just reach out. The summer’s just getting started, and there’s a lot to look forward to.

The waiting is finally over—our Spring pre-order import has landed in the U.S. and is now on its way to our fulfillment center. If you placed a pre-order, your bottles will start shipping out by the end of next week!

After months of planning, paperwork, and logistics (with a few military-level problem-solving skills along the way), it feels great to see these casks make it stateside. Thank you for your patience and support—it means the world.
