(SPOT.ph) Whisky sure has a way of vibing with us on a deeply personal level. You take a sip and it unfurls a sensation of warmth onto the tongue, all the way down to your chest. Its telltale flavor profile—which is diverse in terms of specifics, but is generally of the brooding sort that's caramel-y, woodsy, oaky, and smoky—also invites you to ponder on life's biggest questions.

Getting into the beverage ain't unlike diving deep into a rabbit hole, what with the varieties and brands of whisky that exist, the fascinating methods and raw materials that go behind crafting them, and of course, the possibilities on how to use them in cocktails or pair them with dishes. Here's your chance to take the plunge: Whisky Live Manila is making its 2022 comeback at Shangri-La the Fort on November 4 and 5—and whether you're a casual drinker or a whisky wiz there's plenty that awaits.
