The Ultimate Whisky Experience 2012

Imagine sampling a dram of whisky from the world’s most unique, finest premium whiskies from the top-tier brands. Or conversing with and learning from whisky aficionados, high-end connoisseurs, and collectors. All this plus dining, shopping, and playing at one of the top resorts in the world’s entertainment playground, Las Vegas, Nevada.

Welcome to the 2nd Annual super-premium, elite whisky tasting experience, the ‘Nth 2012 Show’.

The most interesting and compelling feature of the event is the opportunity to try some whiskies so rare you could rarely find, let alone afford them. 30 distilleries will offer  a "super pour", a very rare and expensive whisky that cost from $1000 – $30,000 a bottle.” These include whiskies such as the Macallan 50 year old, Glenlivet 70 year old and Glenfarclas Family Cask 1960. For a regular admission ticket you get all the normal tastings and tokens for two  “super pours” of your choice, while the VIP ticket lets you try all 30. Each of these would retail for over $300 per glass – if you could find them.

In addition to a whole lot of drinking, the event includes food, parties, seminars, such as a financial one by whisky investment expert Andy Simpson, a scotch and cigar pairing class, and a series of Master Class specialty tastings, many of them led by master distillers, hosted by Morrison Bowmore, Jura, Highland Park and other famed distilleries. The entire schedule is available online, (First Come - First Serve for limited seatings).

Tickets are as follows:  the basic or Connoisseur’s package at $525 including those two $300 super pours and much more. The High Roller Package is $1995 with all the super pours, and adds a private tasting of the original 50- year old Glenfiddich, which runs up to $20,000 per bottle. Thoughtfully, there is also a companion package for your non-whisky loving significant other, which does include a premium wine and champagne session, for $255.  While these tickets sound expensive, where else would you get to taste such premium stock?

But Sip Smoke Savor was turned on to a discount codes and we are willing to share!  When you buy your tickets try the code UWECT1 to get $100 Off the Connoisseur Ticket or UWEHT2 for $200 Off the High Roller Ticket .
