Chicken, Waffles, Whiskey, Cheese & Champagne
Join us for a sensory pairing experience, where we'll be pushing the frontier of food & beverage pairings.
Old Elk Rum Cask Finish Rye paired with Blue Cheese | This pairing offers a harmonious balance, where the robust spice of the whiskey melds seamlessly with the rich, savory undertones of the cheese.
Fried Chicken with Veut Brut Champagne | Experience a playful twist on a classic Southern favorite as we pair crispy, golden fried chicken with the effervescent elegance of champagne. The bubbly zest of the champagne cuts through the savory goodness of the fried chicken, creating a delightful contrast that will leave your palate refreshed and satisfied.
Waffle with Bourbon | End your culinary adventure on a sweet note with a decadent pairing of waffles & bourbon. We've created a whiskey-washed butter, using our 2024 pick of Woodford Reserve. This waffle will be served with a 1 oz pour of our Woodford Reserve pick, too. The warm, fluffy waffles, drizzled with maple syrup, are elevated by the deep, caramel notes of a fine Kentucky bourbon, creating a symphony of flavors that is both comforting and indulgent.
We hope you join us for this memorable night!
