In spite of it being a Tuesday Night, locals turned out in droves to attend a whiskey-tasting soiree tossed by MACALLAN distillery at The Book Bindery on Washington Boulevard in Culver City.
No wonder!
The chic par-tay - where they served up scrumptious finger food (pork sliders, ginger chicken, caramelized onion treats) and vintage single malt whiskey on the house - was the best ticket in town!
At approximately 6 p.m. - in fact - guests patiently queued up on the busy street as smartly-attired servers used state-of-the-art gadgets to verify their RSVP's (which were submitted online).
After mixing-and-mingling for about an hour, the happy campers were led into the main ballroom, where they were treated to at least four brands of whiskey and a historical account of the distillery's humble beginnings by virtue of a well-crafted video presentation.
The highlight of the night?
A dram of MACALLAN'S No. 18!
When the reps ushered us out the side door later, I couldn't help but notice that a second round of guests were waiting in the street for another presentation to commence once the rest of us stumbled off howling at the moon!

Skol!
