The Experience
Sip your way through history in the oldest home in St. Catharines.
Guests will enjoy a guided whisky tasting led through a brief history of whisky production in Niagara in the original ballroom of the John Brown House, constructed between 1802-1804. Specially-curated tapas boxes by Pique-Nique will be served to guests, featuring creations to pair with each whisky.
This experience will be led by Iron Gate’s Ajay Bhardwaj, Canada’s first certified whisky ambassador, and The Brown Homestead’s Community Engagement Manager Sara Nixon.
After the 60-minute tasting, guests are invited to explore the rooms of The Brown Homestead and learn about our on-going heritage restoration work.
