BRITISH ISLES TASTING EVENT with Ari Shapiro Tonight at Finaghty's!


Join us for a special night of Scotch and Irish Whisky tasting with 'The Master of Whisky', Ari Shapiro!

Ari discovered a passion for whisky when he was introduced to a single malt Scotch in his early 20s. “Immediately,” he says, “I could tell it was different than other spirits. As I experienced more whiskies, I learned more about the production and history that makes each so wonderful and different – traits that are unmatched in the rest of the spirit world.” Then, in his training to become a Master of Whisky for Diageo, Shapiro gained firsthand experience with whisky-making processes across Scotland, Ireland and North America. As the Master of Whisky for Seattle, Shapiro educates bartenders, restaurant owners, state employees, and consumers about the history and nuances that make up the world of Scotch, Irish, American and Canadian Whiskies. Shapiro says his goal as a Master of Whisky is to educate others about the “intricate processes and minute decisions that make each whisky unique. Working with such a variety of high-quality spirits gives me the tools to explain to people what makes each whisky so special and distinctive.”
