Greetings!

My Name is JD and I am the Founder of It’s Just Booze. We specialize in private spirits education and tasting events.

I started my career as the director of education with the world famous whisky attic, where I curated the largest selection of whisky in North America.

Since 2020 I have traveled around the world educating people on the diverse world of booze.

We work with group sizes from guys on their bachelor parties all the to large corporate events on convention floors.

Our goal is to make sure you leave both entertained but also wowed with the amount of knowledge gained in our time together.

Whether we are having a private paired dinner or working with a networking event, It’s Just Booze provides all of your beverage needs.

We bring to you our passion while creating an inviting environment where no question will be left unanswered.

I look forward to sharing a taste with you—Cheers!
