Every Tuesday in March, from 7-9pm, The Press Gang ( 5218 Prince Street, 423-8816) is hosting a scotch whiskey education and tasting session, featuring many of the 75 single malts on site. Providing the knowledge will be consulting sommelier Wallace Fraser, co-founder and past president of the Association of Sommeliers of the Atlantic Provinces (now CAPS Atlantic) and a past cellar master for the Atlantic Chapter of the International Sommelier Guild. For more than 25 years he has managed the food and beverage operations of a number of fine dining restaurants, including his own place Rosco’s in the late ’80s and La Maison in the ’90s.
