Decanted

A tasting event for kindred spirits.
2:00pm to 5:00pm

Step into the shadowed season and raise a glass where the mountains meet the spirits. Decanted is not just another tasting, it is a gathering of Vermont’s boldest distillers, along with select cider producers, pouring their latest releases under the glow of autumn’s last light.

Inside, you will find more than pours. Producers themselves will lead interactive tastings, sharing the craft and character behind every sip. Jay Peak’s culinary team will join the mix with signature pairings and light appetizers designed to complement the spirits being served. Music will drift throughout the day, carrying you from one tasting to the next, while just outside the ballroom doors, the mountain sets the scene.

When the last pour is served, follow the trail to The Foundry, where exclusive food and drink specials will be available for Decanted guests.
