Join us August 16th for the 2nd Annual Whiskey Open, a one-of-a-kind golf outing hosted by our distillery at Hidden Hills. We’re bringing back everything that made last year a hit and adding even more games, prizes, whiskey, and competition to the course.
This year’s outing features 18 holes, a 7:00 AM shotgun start, and a Best Ball format with a few Whiskey Open twists built in. Teams will battle it out for the chance to take home the Whiskey Open Trophy, plus prizes for the top finishers and bragging rights for the year ahead.
Along the course, players can expect a mix of golf challenges, cocktail and spirit samples, and interactive hole games that make this outing more than just a round of golf. Highlights include Longest Putt, Longest Drive, Closest to the Pin, Marshmallow Drive, Hecklers, spirit tastings, cocktail samples, and our new Chip for the Barrel challenge — where golfers chip onto a floating green in the pond for a shot at glory. We’re also bringing back the Hole-in-One Challenge, where the prize is an Adopt-a-Barrel experience: pick your whiskey, bottle it yourself, keep the barrel, and take home 6 bottles.
