Canadian
Mist Launches "Science Behind the Cocktail" Tour

Mistology:
The Science Behind the Cocktail, an after-hours event hosted at
various Art and Science museums nationwide, will explore the entertaining
and educational side of cocktail creation. The events, brought
to you by Canadian Mist Whisky, will feature an interactive presentation
from Canadian Mist’s Chief Entertaining Officer (CEO) Tim
Laird and Spirits Scientist Steve Hughes. Tim is the master at
mixing cocktails while Steve, a member of Mist’s Research
and Development team, spends his day dissecting cocktails in a
lab. Together they will answer any and all of your bartending
and science related questions. The master mixologists at Canadian
Mist will instruct guests on the art of concocting the cocktails
that defined an era. After the presentation, attendees can apply
what they learned with hands-on demos. If guests prefer to kick
back and let others do the work, there will be a bar staff on-site
and plenty of appetizers to enjoy. The event is open to anyone
21 years of age and older with admission varying from city to
city. All proceeds will benefit the host museum.
