“I love Toronto. I was born and raised here and I’ve always wanted to bring Whisky Global to my hometown,” said Adam Bloch, the event’s lead producer. “Toronto is a city built around history and culture and nothing is richer in those than the community surrounding whisky.”
“I started my own whisky journey by attending a whisky tasting and thus it is a personal mission (of mine) to offer that same opportunity to others.” commented Bloch.
The Whisky Global Toronto, Vancouver, Kelowna and soon Calgary, experiences have been designed and produced by in-house whisky connoisseurs and we are excited to share that Toronto has collaborated with industry insider Elizabeth (Whisky Beth) Havers.
Whether you’re a whisky aficionado or just starting your journey, Whisky Global offers a unique experience for all.
