One of the premier weeks on the Australian whisky calendar is coming in August, but folks in Canberra can get a sneak-peek of what’s to c ... ome, in June!

The cosy surrounds of Volstead Repeal will get a little bit Tassie, with five specially selected drams from Sullivans Cove, Lark, Overeem, Callington Mill and Launceston Distillery.

The whiskies will be presented by the folks who’ve shaped and made them, with whiskymakers and founders from the distilleries talking you through each dram.

Members get discounted tickets to this awesome night of whisky, and once you’re there, you’ll get a double-whammy of discounts, with the chance to pre-purchase discounted tickets to the legendary Tasmanian Whisky Week Showcase.

So get along, and enjoy a taste of what’s to come surrounded by your fellow Members and whisky lovers!

Chat whiskey with the man who’s done it all! Chief Blender Dave McCabe will be sitting down with us for a live chat as we sip on the Redb ... reast Pedro Ximénez Edition together from opposite ends of the globe.

No one-trick pony, McCabe has worked for Midleton Distillery as Irish Whiskey Academy tutor, international whiskey ambassador, blender and process technologist before taking over Billy Leighton as Chief Blender. Basically, he’s the man to ask any burning questions you have about Irish whiskey.

The fun starts at 7pm (AEST) on Wednesday 25th June, so you should be able to join in the live stream from your lounge room with your own bottle of June’s drop ready to pour.

The June Club Catch-up isn’t an event to be missed – and we’ll be giving away a bottle of whisky to one lucky viewer who tunes in!

Tap that ‘going’ button on the Facebook event and when the action kicks off, we’ll send you a reminder to join in. Be there or be square.
