Riga Whisky & Friends, created by the Riga Wine & Champagne team in collaboration with Lauris Grass from Mākonis and Dzērienu Meistarklases, will once again welcome gourmets and drink enthusiasts at the Riga Circus on September 13!
🥃 At the festival, you’ll get to explore the world of whisky, other premium spirits, and cocktails at a special whisky showcase – bringing together leading beverage importers and brands, experts, chefs, and gourmets from across the Baltics.
⭐️ “Riga Whisky & Friends” is designed as a top-tier showcase of whisky and other fine spirits, giving visitors the opportunity to explore and learn about drink culture in a special atmosphere.
🎪 In the main circus arena, balcony, courtyard, and “Horse Stable” area, leading whisky (and beyond) brands will offer the chance to discover and taste nearly 150 world-renowned whiskies.
🍸 Guests will also enjoy a cocktail bar featuring the best bartenders, a cigar lounge, good music, and other inseparable friends of whisky culture.
🦪 Gastronomic delights will be provided by Latvia’s top chefs and restaurants, including Māris Jansons from “Kest” with specially paired dishes and oysters, “Bao Bun” with burgers, and “MeatMe” with some of the world’s finest steaks. It will be a great opportunity not only to discover the world of whisky but also to enjoy outstanding food, relax, meet people, and soak up the early autumn atmosphere.
A special highlight of the festival will be the visit of world-class whisky guru Ron Welsh. Festival guests will have an exclusive opportunity to meet the expert and join Ron’s masterclasses on September 13 at the Riga Circus, as well as hear his stories at the festival’s opening dinner on September 12.
