Welcome to Sip History ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Sip History governing your access to and use of our website at siphistory.co and all related services, including our prohibition-era cocktail history experiences in Charleston, Nashville, and New Orleans.
By accessing our website, making a booking, or participating in any of our experiences, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use our services.
Our experiences involve the service and consumption of alcoholic beverages. You must be at least twenty-one (21) years of age to book, attend, or participate in any Sip History experience. This requirement applies regardless of whether you intend to consume alcohol.
All participants must present valid, government-issued photo identification upon arrival at any Sip History experience. Acceptable forms of identification include a valid driver's license, state-issued ID card, U.S. passport, or U.S. military ID. We reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone who cannot provide valid identification proving they are at least 21 years of age. No refunds will be provided for failure to meet identification requirements.
By booking or attending an experience, you represent and warrant that you are at least 21 years old, that all information you provide is accurate and complete, and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
By booking and attending a Sip History experience, you acknowledge and agree that participation is entirely voluntary and involves inherent risks associated with the consumption of alcoholic beverages. These risks include, but are not limited to: impaired judgment and coordination, adverse reactions including allergic reactions to ingredients, potential interactions with medications or medical conditions, dehydration, and other effects of alcohol consumption.
You expressly assume full responsibility for any and all risks of injury, illness, damage, or loss that may arise from your participation in our experiences, including but not limited to risks arising from: the consumption of alcoholic beverages, food allergies or sensitivities, interactions with other participants, venue conditions, and transportation to and from our experiences.
By participating, you acknowledge that:
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue Sip History, its owners, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors, and assigns (collectively, "Released Parties") from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions, or causes of action arising out of or related to any loss, damage, injury, or death that may be sustained by you or any property belonging to you, arising from your participation in our experiences, whether caused by the negligence of the Released Parties or otherwise.
This waiver does not apply to claims arising from gross negligence or intentional misconduct by Sip History. Nothing in these Terms shall limit or exclude liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.
Bookings are made through our website via our third-party booking platform, Bókun. When you make a booking, you agree to provide accurate and complete information, authorize us and our payment processor to charge the payment method provided, and acknowledge that your booking is subject to availability and these Terms.
Full payment is required at the time of booking unless otherwise specified for group or corporate events. All prices are listed in U.S. dollars. Prices are subject to change without notice, but changes will not affect confirmed bookings. Sales tax will be added where applicable.
Cancellation requests must be submitted by email to info@siphistory.co. Refunds will be processed to the original payment method within 7-10 business days.
You may reschedule your booking up to 48 hours before your scheduled experience at no additional charge, subject to availability. Rescheduling requests made within 48 hours of the experience may be accommodated at our discretion and may be subject to a rescheduling fee of up to 25% of the booking value.
Sip History reserves the right to cancel or reschedule any experience due to insufficient enrollment, venue unavailability, instructor illness, inclement weather, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control (force majeure events), including but not limited to: natural disasters, pandemics or public health emergencies, government orders or restrictions, civil unrest, and venue emergencies.
In the event of a Company cancellation, you will be offered the choice of: rescheduling to another available date within 12 months, a credit valid for 18 months from the original booking date, or a full refund. Sip History shall not be liable for any incidental expenses, travel costs, or other damages arising from cancellation.

Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding, you agree to first contact us at info@siphistory.co to attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will attempt to resolve the dispute through good-faith negotiations within 30 days.
If informal resolution is unsuccessful, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of our services shall be resolved exclusively by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in Nashville, Tennessee, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

You may opt out of the arbitration agreement and class action waiver by sending written notice to info@siphistory.co within 30 days of your first booking with Sip History.
