A Toast to Walton County
There is something inherently comforting about the smell of smoky barbecue and the taste of smooth bourbon – reminiscent of Southern traditions that are treasured time and time again. The Walton County Chamber of Commerce, certainly no stranger to these traditions, has a day set aside annually for patrons to enjoy this quintessential Southern combo in an event that, really, needs no extra spice: the Bourbon and Barbecue event.
The Event Details
Scheduled for the 11th of August, this much-anticipated event is the perfect opportunity for business networking while enjoying some great bourbon and feasting on delicious barbecue. The Barbecue and Bourbon event will take place at the Walton County Chamber of Commerce, which promises an ambiance of southern-style charm, warmth and friendliness.
Taste of the South
Guests at the Bourbon and Barbecue event will experience all-around fun with tasting opportunities that feature a variety of bourbon from selected distilleries. Alongside the tasting, there will be mouth-watering barbecue, straight from smokers and grills, catered by renowned local chefs and restaurants. This event is not only a taste test but a study of flavor profiles as guests mingle and learn about the craft of bourbon distilling and barbecue grilling.
Networking and Socializing
Though we are excitedly highlighting the bourbon and barbecue aspects, it’s key to remember the function of the event itself. As a Chamber of Commerce, one of the Walton County’s key goals is to encourage networking and growth within the local business community. And so, this event, in particular, extends beyond simply the tasting and feasting; it offers a relaxed and casual atmosphere for professionals to interact, discuss and possibly form promising business relationships.
Community Support
Beyond the networking and the enjoyment that Bourbon and Barbecue boasts, there’s another layer – community support. The proceeds from the event will be used to help the Chamber continue its efforts in business development, education and community improvement throughout Walton County. This adds to the richness of the occasion, knowing that each sip of bourbon, each bite of barbecue, contributes to the progress and growth of the local community.
Bring On The Fun
