We are the Whiskey Crusaders! We review whiskies from around the world such as Bourbon, Scotch, Rye, Japanese, American, Irish, Canadian, Taiwanese, Indian and many others. We give nosing and tasting notes so that when you are on the whiskey aisle you can make an informed decision. This will help you to know the flavor profiles you enjoy so that you can explore new whiskies and join us on our crusade to share and visit as many whiskies as possible. We will be going on whiskey crusades to distilleries to meet the actual people who make the magic that all of us enjoy so much and to interview people in the industry to share their passion for whiskey with us.
Whiskey Crusaders
Merry Christmas to all of our students, customers, clients, brand reps, ambassadors, blenders, and distillers. We could not do it without all of our wonderful family and friends at our sides to make the castle great each day. We hope everyone enjoys a Merry Christmas with their family and friends and we will see everyone again at the Whiskey Castle soon. Cheers

Balvenie almost never visits Dallas Fort Worth with the North American Brand Ambassador so you don't want to miss your opportunity to get to learn about Balvenie from one of the best in the industry Brett Bayly. Balvenie to me is one of the very best scotches on the market today. So don't miss this very rare opportunity to try some special whiskies while he is in town teaching this 1 day only masterclass at the Whiskey Castle in Hurst, Texas.
I personally will be bringing in one my favorite all time whiskies for others to learn about that evening from my personal collection (Holy Grail Bottle) as well from Balvenie at the afterparty bottle share. I have no doubt other very special bottles of Balvenie will be coming out that evening as well. This is a class you are not going to want to miss. I am going to keep the early bird pricing on this class so that everyone gets a discount to attend this masterclass as well. Saving you $20 per person at
$119.
