Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America

As I am getting ready to go off to WSWA in a couple of weeks, I wanted to update the cocktail calendar. Big news– Art of Cocktail in Canada has moved from October to April.

Also, LA gets another cocktail week as the LA Spirits Exp o heads to Downtown Los Angeles on May 9-10.  LA Spirits Expo differentiates itself from the recent industry event Golden State of Cocktails as LA Spirits Expo is open to everyone.

Events to keep an eye on- Rum Renaissance and the preview for Miami Cocktail Week and San Francisco Cocktail Week. SF was canceled last year so I hope they make a comeback this year.
