GrapeScot is pleased to be heading to Manotick on Friday, September 20th to lead another Whisky Tasting fundraising event at historic Watson's Mill
Watson's Mill is a unique 1860’s grist and flour mill, on the shores of the Rideau River.  A working industrial heritage site in greater Ottawa, it has a remarkable history linked to local politics, the building of a country, and a tragic love story.  The WMMI mandate is to preserve Watson's Mill as a working historic grist and flour mill, and a social, cultural and educational focal point for the community and visitors.

The tasting starts at 7:30pm and features four nice whiskies, appetizers by The Mill Tavern, a little education and some good company. Tickets, which sell out quickly, are just $45 and can be purchased  by calling 613-692-6455. All proceeds go to Watson's Mill programming.
Hope to see you there!
