At the invitation of Chef Jill Heaton, I hosted a Four Course Bourbon Paired Dinner at the Ivory Road Cafe and Kitchen in Asheville, NC
Each course featured one Chef Jill’s amazing creations along with a whiskey perfectly paired with the food. The Menu featured:
Peach, Sweet Corn & Feta Late Summer Salad paired with Limestone Branches Minor Case Rye Whiskey
Caramelized Onion, Seared Brat, Grainy Mustard Vinaigrette &Toasted Cornbread paired with Green River Wheated Bourbon
“Corn Puddin” Crab Cakes with Crispy Okra & Carolina Gold Coconut Rice Paired with New Riff’s Silver Grove Straight Bourbon Whiskey ’24
Salted Caramel & Brown Butter Apple Bread Pudding w/ Cardamon Whipped Cream paired with Clyde May’s Straight Bourbon Whiskey
The event was sold out and everyone had such a great time that we are planning on having an event like this maybe 2 or 3 times a year in the future.
