Director of Whisky Engagement for Crown Royal
Time: 3pm

Seating is limited (Arrive early, first come first serve)
Behind the Blend is a one-of-a-kind interactive master class that allows guests to experience the craftsmanship and complexity of Crown Royal. Led by Stephen Wilson, attendees will have the unique opportunity to taste the individual whiskies that form the building blocks of our award-winning portfolio, while gaining a deeper understanding of the Crown Royal process from grain to glass.
About Stephen
Stephen Wilson, Crown Royal’s Director of Whisky Engagement, has nearly two decades of experience and adventures focused on Diageo whiskies throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Working closely with industry experts in blending, distilling, maturation, and innovation has afforded Stephen the opportunity to build in-depth knowledge of whisky production from grain to glass, sensory evaluation and history. From high-end media events to private dinners and educational seminars, for Stephen it’s always about good people, good conversation and great whisky.
Silent Auction
100% of the auction’s proceeds will be donated to Project Pink’d. VIPs will be able to start placing bids at 1pm, with all others able to start placing bids upon 2pm entry. Last bids will be accepted at 4:30pm. Come check out all of the amazing experiences up for grabs!
Giving back doesn't stop there
We ensure that every leftover meal from our events finds its way to local food pantries through our partnership with Saving Grace, a local Food Rescue group. Their tireless efforts ensure that surplus food reaches those in need promptly, embodying our dedication to a community where no one goes hungry.
Cigar Patio
When you’re ready for a break from sampling, visit the Havana Garage Cigar Lounge on the North patio to enjoy a free cigar alongside live music by The Mojito Brothers!
Paying it Forward
This year, each Omaha Whiskey Fest board member selected a local non-profit to receive a portion of the event proceeds. You’ll find these amazing organizations throughout the event—be sure to stop by their booths to meet them, learn more about the incredible work they’re doing in our community, and show your support. Plus, each table will also be sampling whiskey, so you can keep sipping while you discover more about these great causes!
