Join Suntory Global Spirits’ James B Beam Distilling Co and El Tesoro Ambassadors, Kay Quigley and Tyler Wang, for an exploration of the influence of American Oak on aged spirits. In this seminar we will be breaking down American Oak to its base components to showcase how resting, cooking, and aging on wood staves can impart the natural flavors inherent in the wood and develop complex aromatic reactions when balanced with American and Mexican spirits. Guests will enjoy 6 samples including distillery exclusive new-make and a recently launched special edition spirit to illustrate oak’s indelible impact.
