Atlanta – July 26, 2019 - Taste of Buckhead, Atlanta’s premier food and beverage tasting event hosted by the Buckhead Business Association (BBA), returns Thursday, September 19, at The Stave Room at ASW Distillery. Now in its 15th year, the event provides Atlanta foodies with unlimited samples of the city’s best food and beverages. “We are so excited for Taste of Buckhead this year,” said BBA President Julie Bailey. “This event allows us to celebrate all the restaurants, chefs, bartenders and more that make Atlanta’s culinary scene so amazing and unique.”
Several restaurants will be participating in this year’s Taste of Buckhead, offering attendees samples of signature and off-menu items, desserts and drinks, and will be announced in the coming weeks. Past participants include The Capital Grille, The Southern Gentleman, Eclipse Di Luna, Chama Gaucha, Southern Baked Pie Company and more.
General admission tickets are available at the early bird price of $50 now through September 1. General admission prices increase to $75 September 1. A limited 200 VIP tickets are available, which include a tour of ASW Distillery, specialty cocktails and exclusive food samples. Early bird VIP tickets are $95 now through September 1, when the price increases to $125. The event begins at 6 p.m., with VIP access starting at 5:30 p.m.
As has been tradition each year, the event will feature a “Spirit Wall” fundraiser benefiting a local charity. A portion of the proceeds from this year’s “Spirit Wall” will be donated to Nicholas House, a non-profit agency operating an emergency shelter and temporary housing for homeless families in Atlanta. Attendees can purchase a ticket for $20 and win a bottle of fine wine or spirits.
“The charitable aspect of Taste of Buckhead is incredibly important to us,” said Bailey. “Giving back is a fundamental part of BBA, and we couldn’t think of a better organization to support this year than Nicholas House.”
