There’s been quite a few anniversaries happening as we near the end of 2021, and there’s still time to add more to the list.
Whiskey Del Bac has reason to celebrate with its 10th-anniversary party at Westbound from 4 – 10 p.m. on Saturday, November 13.
Westbound, which is literally west of downtown and the freeway at 267 S. Avenida Del Convento, is gladly opening up its space for the party. It’ll include live music, a farmer’s market, Whiskey Del Bac cocktails, and a Whiskey 101 workshop.

Farmer’s Market
This market is planning to feature some Tucson staples “with a Del Bac twist.” A few of the vendors include Blue Clover, HUB Ice Cream, Patsy Jean Embroidery, and Decibel Coffee.
Live Music
- Hannah Yuen from 4 – 6 p.m.

Additionally, they’re releasing a special Ten Year Anniversary American Single Malt Whiskey, and it’s limited to a select number of bottles. You can snag one to enjoy at home by purchasing it online at 8 a.m. on Monday, November 15.
“This is an Arizona-only release. Our Ten Year Anniversary offering boasts flavors from our Whiskey Del Bac Classic matured in new American Oak and finished in ex-Calvados barrels. On the nose, you might find pipe tobacco, crushed grape skin, and hints of green apple. Served neat you might taste leather up front, heading into a bright pear and finishing with citrus mid-palate. On the rocks, the sweeter notes of pear and citrus move forward, bolstered by notes of sweet grapes. The vanillas and light tannic bite subside, replaced by flashes of salted caramel. It is 100 proof and has an ABV of 50%.”
Bottles will be priced at $110 and sales will be limited to one each order.
Westbound — where the party is being held — is located at 267 S. Avenida Del Convento. For more information, visit whiskeydelbac.com.
