Fall in Love with Japanese Whisky

Join us for a special Valentine’s Weekend whisky experience featuring Nikka, one of Japan’s most iconic whisky houses. On Friday, February 13, 2026, New England-based whisky educator Jason Cousins will guide guests through a tasting seminar that’s equal parts delicious and unforgettable.

With only 30 spots available, this intimate class explores the origins of Japanese whisky through the true love story at its heart: Masataka Taketsuru and Rita Cowan—a partnership that helped shape the category as we know it today. Along the way, you’ll taste your way through six distinct spirits from the Nikka portfolio, each paired with a curated Granite State Candy Shop chocolate or candy pairing.

• Admission to the seminar + guided tasting
• Six Nikka tastings with sweet pairings
• A $10 coupon off when you purchase 2+ bottles of select Nikka products
