An inclusive new whisky club has launched in Edmonton, Alta. Pour Decisions Association, founded by the women behind Dram Fine Podcast, is the first whisky club in Edmonton designed specifically as a safe, welcoming space for women, LGBTQ2IA+ folks and allies to sip, learn and celebrate whisky without judgment.

The debut event, Whisky 101, took place June 30. Guests explored a curated whisky flight and learned the basics of how to taste, talk about and enjoy whisky without pretension, pressure or gatekeeping. The club launched during Pride Month, sending a clear message: Whisky is for everyone.
