Limited Time Tasting and Blending Experiences Arrive at Sazerac House for Festival Season

Who: The Sazerac House, the home of cocktail history in New Orleans, is partnering with Traveller Blended Whiskey, a new blended whiskey made in a collaboration between Grammy award-winning artist Chris Stapleton and Sazerac’s Buffalo Trace Distillery
What: In celebration of Festival season and the melodious mix of music that takes over New Orleans, the Sazerac House is launching limited-time only tastings and experiences to share the art of blended whiskey. Inspired by Traveller Whiskey, the Sazerac House will welcome guests for “The Art of Blending Experience” as well the Traveller Tasting Experience, a dedicated Traveller Whiskey sampling station in the first-floor lobby. These elements, combined with extended hours to welcome post-Jazz Fest, pre-late show guests, mark a new phase of offerings for the Sazerac House—hosting exhibits tailored to special, only-in-New Orleans celebrations of music and memories.
The experiences will include:
Extended Festival Season Hours: Nothing ends a day at the Fairgrounds better than cold air-conditioning and a refreshing cocktail, and the Sazerac House will be welcoming in guests after Jazz Fest is over for the day and before they head out to late-night shows with extended hours for the Traveller Tasting Experience and the lobby gift shop, where guests can purchase everything from festival finery to their favorite spirits, all in one convenient downtown New Orleans location just steps from the Jazz Fest shuttle stops.
The Art of Blending: Using a top-secret selection of whiskeys from Buffalo Trace Distillery, guests will be guided through the whiskey blending process by Sazerac House experts, ending with their own personalized blend alongside a reveal of the beloved whiskeys they’ve been working with. A true five-sense experience, the Art of Blending Experience primes the guests for a multi-sensory adventure in New Orleans, whether they’re heading to the Fairgrounds or to an after-hours show.
Traveller Tasting Experience: In celebration of the launch of Traveller Whiskey, the Sazerac House will host a special, fully immersive, Traveller tasting experience for guests to sample the delicious flavors of Traveller Whiskey.
