This experience blends hands-on mixology, local history, and iconic Bay Area views into one memorable San Francisco outing.

Hosted inside a historic 1930s Art Deco distillery on Treasure Island, guests enjoy sweeping views of the Bay while learning the craft behind classic whiskey cocktails.

During the class, guests shake and stir three iconic drinks — the Old Fashioned, Whiskey Sour, and Paper Plane, while discovering how different whiskeys shape flavor, balance, and aroma.

One of the moments guests love most is tasting the first cocktail they’ve made themselves. Even those who say they “don’t usually drink whiskey” are often surprised by how approachable and delicious it can be.

Getting here is easy, including a scenic six-minute ferry ride from the San Francisco Ferry Building.

Gold Bar Whiskey is the Official Whiskey of the San Francisco 49ers.
