Art in the Age
Down in Old City, Art in the Age is whipping up a specialty cocktail class that may be the perfect Father’s Day gift for 2021. The meat-themed cocktail class kicks off June 18 at 7 p.m. in partnership with Tabachoy, a local Filipino food cart. Carnivore Cocktails Father’s Day Whiskey & Steak Workshop will highlight some local and unique spirits such the Deerslayer Venison Whiskey from Tamworth Distilling (an exclusive spirit made with 100% real venison sourced from a New Hampshire farm.)
During the workshop, guests and their dads will shake, stir, sip, and devour delicious cocktails and incredible food. Admission includes a table for two in the Art in the Age Cocktail Garden, a demonstration and instruction of two specialized Father’s Day-themed cocktails, two dishes prepared by the Tabachoy team, and a tasting of the Tamworth Distilling Deerslayer Venison Whiskey.
Tickets ($140) are available for purchase on Art in The Age’s website. If you can’t make the workshop, Tamworth Distilling’s Deerslayer Venison Whiskey is also available for purchase at Art in the Age in Philadelphia ($65).

New Liberty Distillery
If your dad is a whiskey fan, look no further than New Liberty Distillery to purchase your Father’s Day gift this year. The South Kensington craft distillery and home to award-winning spirit lines is offering up a variety of choices: The Kinsey Rye, Kinsey American and Kinsey Bourbon.
The Rye is a blend of three different mash bills of rye whiskey with a surprisingly rounded sweetness with dry spice, ripe starfruit, and melon on the palate, with a finish of pepper and molasses. The American is blended to replicate the flavor profile of a 1940s/50s sample of Kinsey and is bright and vibrant on the palate, leading to floral, semi-sweet vanilla notes, and finishing with hints of honeycomb and caramel corn. Lastly, the Bourbon features a blend of two different bourbon mash bills: Warm and complex on the palate, with notes of honeysuckle, toffee, unripe orange, and grass, culminating in a sweet spice finish.
The Kinsey Spirit trio is available online at New Liberty Distillery’s website. This boozy gift set is also available for purchase onsite at New Liberty Distillery in the South Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia.
