South Street Seaport Museum announces Whiskey Tasting Aboard the 1885 Tall Ship Wavertree on August 14, at 6:45pmTickets are now available for $79. Registration is required. seaportmuseum.org/whiskey-tasting

It’s not every day that you get to indulge in a whiskey tasting aboard a historical maritime treasure: a National Register-listed 19th century sailing vessel that represents the thousands of ships that docked along New York’s waterfront.

Join New York Adventure Club and the South Street Seaport Museum for a unique two-hour whiskey tasting experience aboard the historic Wavertree.

Led by Kurt Maitland, founder of the Manhattan Whiskey Club and Deputy Editor of the Whiskey Reviewer, the intimate experience will include a tour of Wavertree, uncovering stories of its global voyages, restoration efforts, and life aboard a 19th century cargo ship. The evening will also feature a curated tasting of five maritime-themed whiskeys, each showcasing unique flavor profiles, and exploration of whiskey’s ties to maritime culture—including trade routes and smuggling tales!

Our guide through the tasting regularly travels to whiskey distilleries throughout the world and is ready to answer any and all questions about these storied spirits. Don’t miss your chance to connect with fellow whiskey enthusiasts, while enjoying ghost stories and delicious pours, so get your tickets today. While light snacks will be provided, we highly recommend eating beforehand.

Advance registration is required. Tickets will be distributed through New York Adventure Club. Visit their website below to get all the details and sign up. Anyone ages 21 and up is welcome.
