7 P.M. START WITH:
Blacken Seared Sea Scallops
With Parsley Pesto
Served with
Tullamore Dew 12 Year
Medium amber color. Multigrain flour, pear crème brulee and sweet floral honey aromas. A soft, supple entry leads to a dryish medium-to-full body of raisin compote, praline, white nuts, and pastry dough flavors. Finishes with a lively, peppery spiced nut fade
Moroccan Vegetable Soup
The Creamy Parsnip and Pumpkin gives this soup a
wonderfully rich texture
served with
Kilbeggan
There is a spirited malt that is almost honey sweet which opens the door for the grain to add a solid strong middle to this Irish whiskey. The finish is very dry with oak and a dry cocoa bitterness that plays well with the bitter and sweet taste. The finish, although not overly complex, stays with you in a pleasant and inviting way.
Seared Porterhouse Steak
With A Lemon Herb Marmalade, Served with Steakhouse Potatoes
and Asparagus
served with
Connemara Peated Irish Whiskey
Silky smooth with a honey sweet start, followed by more complex aromas of malt and fruit giving way to the intensifying full bodied peat. A well-balanced yet complex taste with vanilla oak notes.
Creamy Chocolate Cheesecake
served with
Tyrconnell Single Malt
The citrusy, and young malt feel that was given at the nose come back in to play as it makes its first impression. This lasts for a much longer time than in many whiskeys while the Tyrconnell decides if it is a dry or sweet Irish whiskey, then the decision is made, as the sweetness wins out. The citrus theme carries throughout the taste and is joined right at the end with a bit of chocolate.
