Day of the Dead Distilleries 2026 – Los Angeles
October 24 @ 6:00 pm
Sadness, misery, and woe!
<sniffle sniffle>
Please join us in a “celebration of life” for SEVEN distilleries that have now passed on to the big warehouse in the sky and are survived only by their mortal vessels who are coincidentally now priced sky high everywhere… except LASC.
In somber unsober communion, we will eulogize each whisky as well as the late benefactor/collector, John Pollack, the previous guardian of these delicious mortal remains. Please wear dark colors to solemnize the occasion. We are sorry for your loss.
ATTENDANCE IS LIMITED. We are sorry for your loss.
Funeral sandwiches and snacks provided.

Peatin’ Meetin’ zombies to be shared after the funeral.
Darkness falls upon the land
One by one the stills go dead
Each murdered by a corporate hand
So vodka could be poured instead
They slew the ancient and the young
And let their corpses rot in mud
Yet now you wait with thirsty tongue
To taste their final golden blood
You start to feel a numbing chill
The thrill of what you shall consume
The spawn of seven hallowed stills
Await in seven glassy tombs
Yet as the spirit meets its end
Your Glencairn starts to quiver
For few mere mortals dare to send
The Undead to their liver
