Our journey in every dram
Welcome to Whisky Folk, where passion for spirits flows freely. This is the story of our inclusive community, born from a shared love for whisky. Whether you're a connoisseur or just beginning your journey, we're here to guide you through a world of flavour and camaraderie in Norfolk County, Ontario.
An inclusive club for every palate
Whisky Folk was ignited by a desire to create a welcoming space for all whisky enthusiasts. We are an inclusive club, designed for both seasoned veterans and absolute beginners. Here, you'll find a passionate community eager to share and explore the diverse world of whisky.
Curated by connoisseurs, for you
Our unique tasting experiences are meticulously curated by our team of whisky specialists: Giancarlo Crotta, Randy Ongena, and Derrick Wilhelmus. Since 2017, Whisky Folk has grown to over 100 members, sampling over a thousand different whiskies. Many of these have been rated by our club, ensuring a truly special and informed experience.
Beyond the barrel: discover seasonal spirits
Joining Whisky Folk is free, with zero strings attached. Members are notified about our popular tasting events and enjoy a discount on featured whiskies – sometimes even exclusive bottles! We also encourage branching out with our Seasonal Spirits program: agave in summer, rums in fall, brandy in winter, and gin in spring. While we meet regularly in person in Norfolk, we welcome digital members from around the world. If you have any questions, you’re always welcome to email info@whiskyfolk.ca
