Israeli Whiskey Tasking Supporting Israel
Join us for an evening of refinement, camaraderie, and support for an important cause. Reserve your spot today for the M&H Distillery Whiskey Tasting Open House - where every sip makes a difference!
Melissa Ginsburg, a representative from M&H’s (Milk & Honey) American Distributor and a whiskey maven, will be joining us to share her knowledge and at 8:00 pm, she will guide us through a tasting of a variety of M&H whiskies. This is a unique opportunity to enhance your appreciation for this timeless spirit. We will also have a unique cocktail made with M&H Levantine Gin, which is distilled in Tel Aviv with spices from the Tel Aviv spice market.
At the tasting, you will be able to order M&H Whiskey from our friends at the Wine and Cheese Place”. Orders should be ready for pickup within a few days of the tasting at whichever of the four Wine and Cheese Place locations you specify.
Cost is $18 per person and all proceeds from this event will be directed to support Israel's urgent funding needs.
