Great American Distillers Festival

The GADF will be holding a public spirits tasting
showcasing local and American spirits on Friday,
October 19, and Saturday, October 20th, 2012
at the Tiffany Center in SW Portland. This will be
an opportunity to taste the incredible variety of
spirits being produced in Oregon, and around the
country, all in one location. Distillers and owners will be on hand to pour samples and answer questions. There will be an estimated 50 distilleries pouring.
The distillers will be on hand, mixing and pouring
samples of holiday cocktails. This will allow show
attendees to experience how some of the spirits
being tasted can be used in actual cocktails. As the
distillers mix their drinks, they will also be discussing
the how’s and why’s of the techniques they are using,
making this an opportunity for the public to learn about the art and skills involved in mixing cocktails.

You may buy additional tasting tickets at the event.
