The Whisky Cabinet(TWC), AKA theCentral Florida Malt Whisky Cabinet, had its first public event in September of 2011. The philosophy of founder Art McIntosh has always been to share his passion, knowledge and taste for great and exciting whiskies with his friends, which may often include bottlings not offered in the US market, limited releases, and rare finds; all for a break-even price. Todd, Paula, Billy, Karen, and Art continue this philosophy today with each tasting, and TWC creed: “Finding your favourite whisky should be a fun and lifelong adventure”. Meaning that it’s okay to have your favourite whisky; we all do. However, don’t be afraid to branch out and try something new. One never knows, the next one could be your new favourite whisky! Many of members have found their favorite whiskies in our great tasting adventures. Please take a few moments see the tempting, succulent and sometimes astonishing lineups from our past events listed here.
