Get 4 additional and generously poured samples of whiskey as well.

It was a nice treat to be able to taste the Whiskey. If you dont like Whiskey Straight up definitely bring a couple Drinks you can mix it in. The Guide on the Tour was very Informative and it was Interesting learning about the Whiskey History of Pittsburgh, PA. It was a very enjoyable tour. And I loved that it ended at the Speakeasy!!!

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME, our tour guide Aaron was AWESOME. Now let’s talk about the tour. The tour was very informative about the history of Whiskey in Pittsburgh it was 2 hours long walking but plenty of places to stop and sit while Aaron tells the history of Whiskey in Pittsburgh. It ends in the William Penn Hotel at the Speakeasy which has so much history, actual Speakeasy from prohibition. We are going back again with more people from our family. Aaron was AWESOME !!
