BROWN-FORMAN COCKTAIL PAIRING DINNER
A SPIRITED EVENING
Five Handcrafted Cocktails | Four Home-Cooked Courses
Hosted by a Brown-Forman Brand Ambassador & Mixologist
Five exceptional cocktails, four delicious courses and a guided journey through some of the world’s finest spirits. Because drinking on an empty stomach would be terribly irresponsible.
WELCOME COCKTAIL
DIPLOMÁTICO RUM | VENEZUELA
The Venezuelan Sunset
Diplomático Rum, fresh pineapple juice, lime, a touch of vanilla and aromatic bitters.
A little Venezuelan sunshine to start the evening. No passport required.
FIRST COURSE
FORDS LONDON DRY GIN & CHAMBORD | ENGLAND & FRANCE
The Royal Bramble
Fords London Dry Gin, Chambord Black Raspberry Liqueur, fresh lemon juice and simple syrup, served tall over ice.
Baked Brie with Chambord Raspberry Compote
Warm, creamy Brie topped with a rich Chambord raspberry compote, served with toasted sourdough crostini.
The French brought the cheese, the British brought the gin. Diplomatic relations have never tasted better.
SECOND COURSE
WOODFORD RESERVE BOURBON | KENTUCKY, USA
Woodford Reserve Old Fashioned
Woodford Reserve Bourbon, aromatic bitters, sugar and a twist of fresh orange zest.
Kentucky Bourbon-Glazed Pork Belly Bao Buns
Soft, fluffy steamed bao buns filled with tender, slow-roasted pork belly, glazed with Woodford Reserve Bourbon, maple syrup and a touch of soy, finished with crisp pickled vegetables and spring onions.
Kentucky bourbon meets Asian street food. The British just turned up to eat it.
THIRD COURSE — MAIN
SLANE IRISH WHISKEY | COUNTY MEATH, IRELAND
The Irish Orchard
Slane Irish Whiskey, cloudy apple juice, fresh lemon, & splash of soda.
Salmon Wellington with Irish Cream & Tri-Colour Peppercorn Sauce
Tender salmon fillet wrapped in golden, flaky puff pastry, served with creamy garlic mashed potatoes, tender broccolini and a rich Irish cream and tri-colour peppercorn sauce, finished with a touch of Slane Irish Whiskey.
A proper Wellington with an Irish twist. The Duke would be turning in his grave, but he’d probably ask for seconds.
FOURTH COURSE — DESSERT
HERRADURA TEQUILA | JALISCO, MEXICO
Mexican Coffee
Freshly brewed coffee with Herradura Tequila, Mexican chocolate, cinnamon and a touch of brown sugar, finished with lightly whipped cream.
Mexican Chocolate & Cinnamon Cheesecake
Rich, creamy chocolate and cinnamon cheesecake on a buttery biscuit base, finished with a decadent Herradura tequila-infused chocolate sauce.
Coffee, chocolate, cheesecake and tequila. Because apparently, a normal cup of coffee wasn’t quite enough.
FINE SPIRITS. PROPER FOOD. QUESTIONABLE BRITISH HUMOUR.
Five Cocktails. Four Courses. Absolutely No Bollocks.
