Cost: $135 + Fees

Join us for an intimate evening where history meets modern Latin flair. We invite you to a curated four-course journey featuring the storied "First Bottled Bourbon," Old Forester, and the culinary artistry of Chef Arnie Gonzales.

From the subtle spice of the 1870 Memorial to the bold complexity of the 1920 Prohibition Style, each drink has been meticulously paired with Chef Arnie’s signature Latin Fusion dishes. Experience how the deep oak and vanilla notes of Kentucky’s finest spirit elevate the vibrant, creative flavors of Travieso’s kitchen.
