The 2007 Pittsburgh Whiskey Festival aims to attract and engage both “whiskey” and “whisky” enthusiasts alike.

The festival will feature more than 60 premier distilled spirits producers and will present a wide variety of the finest Scottish, American, Canadian and Irish whiskies, including single malts and bourbons. The fest, sponsored by the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, will include a buffet and a silent auction.

“It is befitting for Pittsburgh to have a world-class tasting event that celebrates premium spirits,” said Ed Harrell, producer of the Pittsburgh Whiskey Festival and president of the Pittsburgh Wine Festival. “In the tradition of the Pittsburgh Wine Festival, we are excited to have some of the finest distilled spirits producers in the world coming to Pittsburgh for the Whiskey Festival.”

The Whiskey Festival is a special opportunity for whiskey enthusiasts to “try before you buy” spirits that will be available through the onsite PLCB Premium Spirits store.

Tickets to the Pittsburgh Whiskey Festival are $85 in advance and $95 at the door. Tickets will be available for advance purchase online at www.pittsburghwhiskeyfest.com, along with additional event information.
