Salt & Spirits: A Whiskey Tasting with Dad's Whiskey Stash

Ever wonder why one whiskey label makes you reach for the bottle and another doesn't? Or how salt taxes helped decide which cities became trade routes and which didn't?

Salt & Spirits takes the ideas from MODA's current exhibition, SALT: A Design Story, and pours them into your glass. Troy Bell, founder of Dad's Whisky Stash and an award winning Executive Bourbon Steward, leads a seated tasting through three whiskeys, each one tied to a theme from the gallery: how process shapes a spirit, how design shapes a bottle, and how place shapes a city's drinking history.
