The Forbidden Bourbon Blending Experience

Join us for an exceptional evening where bourbon, fire, and flavor converge at District Smokehouse for an immersive celebration of craftsmanship, culinary artistry, and Kentucky bourbon tradition.

The evening begins fireside with a welcome toast and chef-curated bites served straight from the smoker, inviting guests to savor the rich, smoky flavors of Southern barbecue alongside their first pour of Forbidden Bourbon.

Guests will then step behind the bottle and into the art of bourbon making with Forbidden Bourbon Master Distiller Marianne Eaves, Kentucky's first female bourbon Master Distiller since Prohibition. In this exclusive, hands-on blending experience, Marianne will guide guests through the nuances of bourbon—exploring aroma, flavor, balance, and finish as they craft their own signature blend.

And the experience doesn't end at the table. Each guest will create a custom bourbon blend to take home, making the evening as personal as it is memorable.

Following the blending experience, guests will gather for a chef-curated Smokehouse dinner, showcasing bold, smoke-kissed flavors thoughtfully paired with the depth and character of Forbidden Bourbon.

From the first pour beside the fire to the final sip at the table, the Forbidden Bourbon Blending & Smokehouse Dinner Experience is an evening of discovery, craftsmanship, and indulgence—where guests don't simply taste bourbon; they become part of its story.
