Boozeday Tuesday with Whistle Pig
TONIGHT!! Erin Lansberg is showcasing Whistle Pig Rye Whiskey from 6-8pm offering $6 specialty cocktails
Whistle Pig Rye Whiskey produces a 100-proof, straight rye whiskey, aged for at least ten years through a unique double-barrel process.
Whistle Pig was released in the summer of 2010 to great critical acclaim, earning 96 points from Wine Enthusiast, their highest rating ever for a rye whiskey, a “highest recommendation” from Spirits Journal, as well as accolades from The Wall Street Journal, GQ, Forbes, Maxim, Imbibe Magazine, and many others. These extraordinary honors “humble and set a high bar” for Master Distiller Dave Pickerell.
Whistle Pig embodies the perfect combination of proof, purity, and age — hitting “the sweet spot” in all three categories. In short: more rye, all the proof, and the perfect age. All in. Full stop.
SPECIALTY COCKTAILS:
Black Manhattan whistle pig straight rye whiskey, averna amaro, bitter truth orange bitters
Whistle Pig Sazerac whistle pig straight rye whiskey, st. george absinthe, bitter truth bitters

Boozeday Tuesday with Pig’s Nose Scotch
Nationally acclaimed James Beard Nominated Mixologist from Spare Room and Brand Ambassador of Pig’s Nose Scotch, Naomi Schimeck, will guest bartend from 6-8pm offering $6 specialty cocktails.
Pig’s Nose Scotch is refreshingly soft, yet reassuringly rich… the whisky’s name plays on the notion that it’s as smooth as a pig’s nose. This exceptional blended Scotch has been created by Richard Paterson, Scotland’s only third generation Master Blender. Produced in specially selected first fill oak casks, the seriously satisfying smoothness is achieved through combining oak-aged Speyside, Islay and Lowland malts with superior Invergordon gentle grain whiskies.
MUSIC: Upright bassist and pianist play prohibition style music.
