Buzzard’s Roost Adding Speakeasy Experience

Louisville’s Whiskey Row will soon be home to a new speakeasy experience. Buzzard’s Roost Sipping Whiskey is about to debut its “Sipping in Secret” speakeasy experience that offers an entertaining taste of Prohibition days.

Want to check it out? Come celebrate National Bourbon Day on Friday, June 14 and see the new speakeasy at a special party. Stop by Buzzard’s Roost Whiskey Row Experience at 624 W. Main Street from 4 to 7 p.m. Cocktails and “light bites” are on the menu, along with a cash bar.  No reservations or tickets are required.

For $28 per person, the “Sipping in Secret” speakeasy experience can host up to eight guests for the one-hour experience. It will include:

  • A taste of white lightning straight from the Buzzard’s Roost pot still “Buzz Cauldron.”
  • A Prohibition-era cocktail.
  • History and storytelling about the lengths people went to for illegal drinks during Prohibition.
  • “Sipping in Secret” will be available on Thursdays and Sunday at 4 p.m.
  • Click here to book.

“What sets us apart on Whiskey Row are our experiences. Our experiences are fun, immersive ways for guests to deepen their whiskey knowledge, and the new ‘Sipping in Secret’ experience in our Speakeasy created by Susan Reigler offers a fascinating look at how people got creative in order to continue sipping in the days of Prohibition.”
