Twitter Facebook Email Print We love wine tastings, and the ones done at Astoria Park Wine & Spirits usually result with me buying a bottle of what I tasted. This time around, though, they are doing a tasting of Queens Courage Gin! That’s the delicious “Old Tom” style gin, which was popular during the 1800s, currently produced by Astoria Distilling Company. This will be their first in-store tasting, and Astoria Park Wine & Spirits is the first store to stock the product. We think that is pretty awesome and this tasting is worth putting on your calendar—Thursday, July 3 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. You’ll be able to walk out of the store with a bottle, if it suits your taste. What a great way to start the holiday weekend!
