We are thrilled to extend to you an exclusive invitation to a one-of-a-kind private dinner pairing event featuring the renowned Bardstown Bourbon Company. This exceptional evening promises to be an unforgettable experience for bourbon enthusiasts and culinary connoisseurs alike. The event is centered around the release of our first Bardstown Private Cask Strength Bourbon, which we picked back in 2021 and have had aging to perfection in Rick House A 6th Floor at Bardstown. This exclusive barrel is in a league of its own and will never be seen again. Rootstock’s tasting team was one of the last groups given the privilege of picking a “future barrel” before the program was discontinued.
Join us for an exquisite culinary journey to celebrate the release of the first of our two private barrels of Bardstown Bourbon, where the finest creations of our chef meet the exceptional spirits of Bardstown Bourbon Company. The evening will include:
- Welcome Cocktail: Start the night with a signature bourbon cocktail crafted by our expert mixologist.
- Curated Pairing Menu: Indulge in a specially curated multi-course dinner, each course thoughtfully paired with a different selection of Bardstown Bourbon.
- Guided Tasting: Enjoy a guided tasting led by a Bardstown Bourbon ambassador, who will share insights into the art of bourbon making and the unique characteristics of each pairing, including a sample of our private barrel.
- Exclusive Networking: Connect with fellow bourbon aficionados and special guests in an intimate and elegant setting.
- Gift Bottle of our Private Barrel: Receive a personal bottle of our exclusive Private Barrel pick with each VIP ticket purchased.
