This one is a doozy! First you’ll be greeted by head bartender Trevor Schneider who will teach you how to make a bourbon smash with Larceny bourbon. Yes, you’ll be drinking one of them while you ask any bourbon questions you have to a representative from the Larceny distillery.
Then you’ll move into The Den, Harding’s private whisky room, where you’ll experience an intimate tasting lesson with Elijah Craigh bourbon. You’ll be served a paired dish of Chef Ariel Fox’s crispy Yukon potato skins with shaved blue cheese.
From there you’ll take a walk into Harding’s kitchen where Chef Ariel Fox will explain how they make their burger with a custom blend of 80/20 lean to fat ratio mix of chuck and skirt beef that is then mixed with a 30% ratio of short rib.
The small group of you will then be seated at a community table on Harding’s VIP balcony dining table where you’ll devour said succulent Burger along with some skin-on rosemary frech fries with a paired bourbon cocktail.
Due to the intensity of this event, there is a very limited amount of tickets. Sleep on this one and you’ll be sorry.
**Must be seated 15 minutes before event**
