Henri mixologist Clint Rogers has gathered some of the city's most talented barmen for a series of spirited dinners you don't want to miss.
This sounds pretty cool—even though no female 'tenders are in the lineup—because each event takes on a different spirit that's paired with Executive Chef Dirk Flanigan's food.
For example, the first dinner takes place at 6pm Oct. 10 with Stephen Cole and his team from Barrelhouse Flat. They're charged with coming up with five whiskey craft cocktails using Buffalo Trace, Elmer T. Lee and Weller bourbons. The evening will begin with a cocktail reception featuring whiskey-based punches from Rogers and Thomas Mooneyham, the head mixlogist from Henri's sister restaurant The Gage. Then the guest bartenders will create cocktails to complement a five-course feast.
Here's the lineup for additional spirited dinners this fall:
Rum
Nov. 14
Mike Ryan & Team - Sable Kitchen and Bar
Cognac
Dec. 5
Michael Simon & Team - Carriage House
Gin
Jan. 23
Danny Shapiro & Team - Scofflaw
Each dinner is $100 (excluding tax and tip) and reservations are required by calling Henri.
