Join Central Bistro for a special evening of super select whiskey tasting on Monday, March 31, starting at 6:30 PM. This private event will showcase Old Rip Van Winkle whiskeys of Frankfort, Kentuckly.

Julian Van Winkle, also known as "Pappy," began in the whiskey business in the late 1870s as a sales rep for W.L. Weller & Sons liquor wholesalers. He soon began distilling himself, opening the Stitzel-Weller Distillery in 1935. Now four generations later, his grand-son Julian III and his great-grandson Preston, run Old Rip Van Winkle Distillery, which was opened by Julian Jr. in 1972. 

Guests will experience a blind taste testing of seven select whiskeys and one Pappy along with specially paired Central Bistro bites. Guests will also get to meet reps from the distillery and learn more about one of the country's finest whiskey families.
