It was a bust...!! Promoted as a premier upscale event for those who enjoy fine Spirits and like to mingle with others. What we found was a waste of time and money. Lets take the "dress code". Cocktail attire does not mean jeans and flip flops or t shirts. I do believe that cocktail attire was promoted and it sure was expected just not enforced. Although the venue was open it was still humid and those that did dress appropriately were driven out by the humid conditions. The tastings were nice once you got past the power drinkers looking for the free shots just to get plastered. If you enjoyed standing in lines for food then the catering was good. Also, the gambling tables were a joke... plotted in the middle of the event and always full of those thinking they were in Vegas. The commemoration glasses were nice yet the other promotional packages ran out early. Unfortunately, we were looking for a more upscale event with a true dress code and a little more order. Would have been nice to be able to mingle without sweating and trying to get past the power drinkers to actually taste some spirits. Some form of air conditioning would have been nice. Will most definitely NOT waste my money next year on this even. Promoted well just did not live up to expectations. We actually left the event after 2.5 hours and headed to Del Friscos to enjoy some good music, fine spirits, smooth piano music and good company in a temperature controlled environment This event was not worth the $125.00 per ticket for general admission.

I totally agree with this review. We also went expecting an upscale event and instead spent 2.5 hours in one line after another before calling it quits. The event was way oversold and needed a much better organization for the crowds. Would not recommend.
