Liquor store hosting ‘the’ event of the year on Saturday

World's most prized and rare whiskies, scotches, bourbons and cognacs set to be released

On Saturday, Nov. 7, BC Liquor Stores are holding their annual “Spirit Release” — the day when they release the world’s most prized and rare whiskies, scotches, bourbons and cognacs.

This event, which will feature a tasting at the Langley BC Liquor Store at 64325 201 St., is widely considered ‘the’ event of the year for connoisseurs trying to snatch up hard-to-get, premium spirits.

In recent years, the popularity of the event has grown as more young parents and professionals, so-called hipsters and foodies, get into worldly whiskies in record numbers. Scotch isn’t just your dad’s drink anymore.
