Whiskey Crusaders

Get ready for an incredible night of American whiskey history, rare whiskey, and serious whiskey nerdiness as the Whiskey Crusaders welcome Leopold Bros. founder Todd Leopold to the Whiskey Crusaders Whiskey Castle on Friday, October 2, 2026 at 7:00 PM!

whiskeycrusaders.com/product/leopold-bros-mastercl…

FYI there will be an October combo coming soon too

This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from one of the most respected craft distillers in America and dive into one of the most fascinating pieces of whiskey history—the legendary Three Chamber Still.

Todd and Leopold Bros. helped resurrect this nearly forgotten pre-Prohibition American distilling method, recreating a style of rye whiskey known for its remarkably rich, bold, and complex character. We won't just be talking about it—we'll be tasting the results firsthand, including an incredible 9-Year Three Chamber Rye!

🥃 Expressions for the Evening

Welcome Cocktail — Cherry Manhattan
Leopold Maryland-Style Rye • Tart Cherry Liqueur • Bittercube Cherry Bark Vanilla

Featured Pours

⭐ 9-Year Three Chamber Rye

5-Year Maryland-Style Rye

8-Year Bourbon Finished in a Three Chamber Rye Barrel

Sour Lime Cordial

Leopold Bros. Small Batch or Navy Strength Gin

If you love rye, bourbon, whiskey history, unusual production techniques, or simply learning how whiskey is actually made, this is a masterclass you do not want to miss.

Come spend the evening with Todd Leopold at the Whiskey Castle for great whiskey, dinner, history, and the kind of deep-dive masterclass you simply don't get every day.

Whiskey Crusaders Whiskey Castle
Featuring Sagamore Brand Representative Tim McEvilly

The Whiskey Crusaders are excited to welcome Sagamore Whiskey back to the Whiskey Castle for another special evening—and this one brings our history with Sagamore full circle.

Our relationship with Sagamore goes all the way back to 2018, when we hosted the launch of Sagamore Port Finish Rye right in my living room. That evening marked the first launch of the Port Finish outside the state of Maryland, long before the Whiskey Castle became what it is today.

Eight years later we launch something something completely different for Texas.

🥃 The Launch of the BRAND-NEW Sagamore Bourbon

Join us Friday, September 25th as Brand Representative Tim McEvilly takes us through the story and evolution of Sagamore, from the rye whiskies that built its reputation to the next chapter for the Baltimore brand: the launch of the brand-new Sagamore Bourbon.

THEY LAUNCHED THE HEARACH OLOROSO WITH US. NOW THEY’RE COMING BACK TO DO IT AGAIN.

The Whiskey Castle has been chosen once again for an Isle of Harris North American whisky launch!

On Friday, September 18, 2026 at 7:00 PM, the Whiskey Crusaders Whiskey Castle welcomes back North American Brand Ambassador Robin Coupar for an exclusive Masterclass & Dinner celebrating the North American Launch of the NEW Isle of Harris Single Malt Scotch Whisky!

This is especially exciting for us because this isn’t the first time Isle of Harris has chosen the Whiskey Castle for a major launch.

We previously had the privilege of hosting the North American launch of the sherry-finished Isle of Harris The Hearach Oloroso Cask Matured, and now Isle of Harris is returning to the Castle and trusting us once again to help introduce their newest whisky to North America.

That makes this much more than another masterclass. We get to be part of the next chapter of Isle of Harris in North America — and you can be here to experience it with us.

Robin will take us inside the story of this remarkable distillery, the Isle of Harris, and the spirits they create while we taste our way through an incredible lineup — including the NEW North American release and an exclusive surprise single cask finale!

Only a handful of tickets remain for the Balcones Masterclass & Dinner this Friday, July 31, so be sure to reserve your seats before this event sells out.

This is a truly rare opportunity to spend an evening with four of the most respected minds in the whiskey industry—Master Distiller Jared Himstedt, Blending Manager Gabe Richarde, Brand Experience Manager Alex Elrod, and National Brand Ambassador Charlie McRae—all together in one room. They will guide you through "Rhythms of Texas: An Experiment on Climate & Maturation," a fascinating masterclass that is seldom presented outside of the distillery.

Not only will you learn directly from the team that created these whiskies, but you'll also taste each expression alongside them, ask questions, and experience firsthand how climate and maturation shape the final spirit. Pair that with an incredible ranch-to-table dinner prepared by Chef Dwight of Outpost 36, and you have an evening that simply cannot be replicated.

Don't miss your chance to be part of this unforgettable experience. Purchase your tickets using the link below before the remaining seats are gone.
