Overview

Our cocktail tour! From the mill to the still, whisky has been a cornerstone in Pittsburgh's history. Come city centre for our whisky tour where you will discover how whisky has fuelled political, labour and social movements throughout the region. Begin and end your tour in style with a Prohibition cocktail at the Ritual House and an Old Fashioned at the Rebel Room. As we walk the streets of City centre, along iconic architecture, you'll learn about the violent Whisky Rebellion in Pittsburgh, hidden former (as well as existing!) speakeasies around the city, and how Prohibition affected the region.

**Please note: This is NOT a bar crawl but a whisky history tour that includes two handcrafted cocktails. This event is 21+ only, no minors please.
