Killjoy whiskey and tapas tasting

With the new season comes a new menu, and what better way to try it out than paired with a lineup of whiskeys?! Join us on Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022, at 6 p.m. for a four-flight whiskey tasting with one of our favorite whiskey gals, Kelly Murphy of Southern Glazer’s! We’ll pair each of Kelly’s four featured whiskeys with a preview of our new tapas menu selections for a tasty fall evening you won’t want to miss.

The featured whiskeys include two picks from Jim Beam, Cathead’s Old Soul, and Limestone Branch’s Yellowstone. Read up on them below, then get tickets to the tasting to try them out yourself!

Jim Beam

For over 200 years, Jim Beam has been dishing out its secret family recipe. Produced in Clermont, Kentucky, Jim Beam is the world’s No. 1 Kentucky bourbon—what four years of aging in newly charred American white oak barrels does for you!

Cathead’s Old Soul Bourbon Whiskey

Old Soul is unique in that it’s a blend of two different whiskeys, each aged for a different amount of time but with an identical high-rye mash bill. The resulting flavor is one of vanilla (think baked goods, with a hint of fresh leather!), plus a rich, earthy finish reminiscent of rye spice.

Limestone Branch’s Yellowstone Select

A product of seventh-generation distillers, Yellowstone Select (named after the country’s first national park, naturally!) features a handpicked blend of 4- and 7-year-old bourbons. It boasts a nose of rye spice and cherries, a palate of smoked caramel, and a smoky oak and brown sugar finish.
