Whiskey Walking Tour
Love whiskey? Walking? Pittsburgh? Then this sounds like the tour for you!
From the mill to the still, whiskey has been a cornerstone in Pittsburgh's history. Come downtown for our whiskey history tour where you will discover how whiskey has fueled political, labor and social movements throughout the region. We start the tour with a sample of the oldest and longest continuously produced whiskey in America. As we walk the streets of Downtown, you'll learn about the violent Whiskey Rebellion in Pittsburgh, hidden former (as well as existing!) speakeasies around the city, and how Prohibition affected the region. Besides that you will find out a lot about the revival of craft spirits, the history of a local and family-owned distillery and the first privately run liquor store in PA since before Prohibition. You will get 2 additional and generously poured samples of whiskey at the beginning of the tour and then end with a cocktail at the Industrialist- a boutique hotel downtown. Cheers!
***Please note: This is NOT a bar crawl, but a whiskey history tour with final whiskey tasting. Children of all ages + doggies welcome with advance notice and proper supervision. Adults must be 21+ to drink.***
