FIVE COURSE TEQUILA & CIGAR DINNER

 

Presented by Chris Johnson, Wirtz Beverage of MN

 

July 19th 2012 • Historic Water Street Inn

 

6 P.M. SOCIAL HOUR:

BUTLER PASSED HORS D’OEUVRES

 

 

Cabo Wabo Blanco

 

As crystal clear as the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas, Cabo Wabo Tequila Blanco arouses the senses with fresh floral aromas complemented by notes of lime and mint. Handcrafted from 100-percent Weber’s Blue Agave, our blanco boasts unadulterated agave flavors and a slightly spicy character that teases the

palate, and delivers a crisp, clean finish.

7 P.M. START WITH:

APPETIZER

BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS WITH MUSHROOMS, PEARL ONIONS ROSEMARY

 

 

Served with ~ Maestro Doebel

 

Maestro® Dobel is a unique blend of Extra- Añejo, Añejo and Reposado Tequila blended and filtered to

produce a crystal clear liquid. The agave is selected from the Lowland family owned ranches where the terroir produces lighter, herbal and citric aromas. Ideally balanced by clarity, complexity, crispness and craftsmanship, it boasts a full-bodied palate, with bold notes of smoked wood and dried fruits. These

flavors are carefully balanced by a light nutmeg spiciness and a sweet honey finish.

SALAD

SHRIMP, MANGO AND AVOCADO SALAD WITH A SWEET CHILI-TEQUILA VINAIGRETTE

 

 

Served with ~ Herradura Reposado

 

Introduced in 1962, Herradura Reposado is made from 100% Tequilana Weber Blue Agaves. Aged one month short of being considered “Anejo”, this Reposado perfectly blends the smooth taste of wood with agave.

It blends cooked agave with a nice balance of wood, fruity notes, vanilla and spices, like cinnamon. Bright, transparent and shiny with an amber-gold color of mild intensity, golden tints and a great body. Elegant

and harmonious, its taste confirms the anticipated smell.

ENTREE

WHOLE ROASTED BACON WRAPPED BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH GREEN ONION

AND WASABI MASHED POTATOES AND BRUSSELS SPROUT LARDON

»

 

Served with ~ Sauza Tres Generaciones Añejo

 

This Añejo Tequila has a rich, 100% blue agave flavor enhanced by 12 months in toasted American oak

barrels where it gains its delicate amber hue, an array of subtle flavors, and its unique smooth, smoky

finish. With a pale amber color and aromas of toasted oak, lightly cooked agave and a hint of caramel-

vanilla sweetness; the taste is full and balanced, with brown sugar and caramel notes.

DESSERT

MILK CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE WITH HAZELNUT CRUNCH CRUST

»

 

Served with ~ 1800 Coconut

 

1800 Coconut Tequila is made from 100% Blue Agave Tequila and is triple distilled. It is infused with fresh coconut water for an amazingly smooth taste.

Five Course Whiskey and Cigar Dinner

Featuring Robin Casper of Diageo

March 8th, 2012

Historic Water Street Inn

 

6 P.M.  SOCIAL HOUR:

BUTLER PASSED HORS D’OEUVRES

Black Bush

With an intriguing flavor and a name to match, this is our special blend.  It combines a uniquely high proportion of malt whiskey matured in former Oloroso Sherry casks with a sweet, batch-distilled grain whiskey  This unique recipe gives Black Bush its rich fruity notes and deep intense character, balanced by a unique smoothness.  The nose is big and full with a rich fruitcake aroma and intense Sherry sweetness developing into dried fruit, raisin and Christmas cake notes.  It is soft and silky on the palate with a nutty character.  A lingering sweetness on the finish shows a remarkable balance between the poier from Sherry-seasoned casks and the smoothness of the spirit.

 

7 P.M.  START WITH:

Appetizer

Caramelized Onion Dip with Cilantro-Garlic Pit Crisps

Bushmill’s 10 Year

Triple distilled from 100% malted barley and matured for a minimum of 10 years mainly in Bourbon-seasoned barrels, it has aromas of honey, vanilla and milk chocolate.  The nose is fresh and zesty with notes of honey and ripe fruit.  Soft on the palate flavors of vanilla, milk chocolate and toasted wood finish crisp, clean and gently drying.

Salad

Steak Waldorf Salad with Red Apples, Spiced Walnuts and a Whiskey Spiked Honey Dijon Dressing

 Bushmills Original

The Cornerstone of the Bushmills family.  It’s a blend of Bushmills own triple distilled malt whiskey with a lighter Irish grain whiskey making it an approachable whiskey with a rich, warming taste of fresh fruit and vanilla.  It has a light and fruity nose with a spicy aroma, notes of vanilla developing into vanilla ice cream and creme brulee.  The gently warming texture coats the mouth and has a touch of honey sweetness.  The finish is crisp and fresh with a touch of spice.

 

Entrée

Marinated Porterhouse Steak with Parmesan Paprika Butter, Wasabi Green Onions, Mashed Potatoes and Hericot Verts with Bacon

 

Bushmill’s 16 Year

This distinctive Irish malt whiskey is aged for 16 years in a combination of Oloroso Sherry and Bourbon-seasoned casks, then matured for several months in Port wine barrels – a unique maturation which imparts distinct notes of juicy fruits, nuts and spice, as well as a hint of ruby redness.  The robust nose carries notes of treacle toffee and sweet spice.  Full bodied with flavors of praline, honey, caramelized fruits and toasted nuts.  Deep finish of jammed berries and dark chocolate.

 

Dessert

Chocolate-Whiskey Truffle Souffle

 

Bushmills Honey

Featuring Chris Johnson from Wirtz Beverage MN

September 22, 2011

Historic Water Street Inn

 

6 P.M.  SOCIAL HOUR:

BUTLER PASSED HORS D’OEUVRES

Dewars White Label Blended Whiskey

In 1899, Dewars’ first Master Blender, A.J. Cameron created White Label.  Since then, it has won over 100 awards and is as full and round as it’s always been. A swirl of honey, with a sprig of Scottish heather. Rich, golden and warm. Clean, fresh vanilla, with a slice of pear. Soft, fruity and well-rounded.

 

7 P.M.  START WITH:

Red Rock Seafood Bisque

Dewars 12 Year Blended Whisky

After aging, Dewars 12 year is returned to Vintage oak casks and aged again so it can mature a little more.  This extra step is called double-aging.  It means the flavors stay awhile in the cask creating an even smoother blend, with a long lingering finish.  A drizzle of honey, homemade toffee apples & crumbly fudge. Warm, buttery and mellow.  Juicy sultanas and fresh citrus with a wisp of vanilla. Clean, full and lively.  Melted caramel, folded in slowly with a trace of oak. 

Rounded, smooth and lingering.

 

Hearts of Romaine, Tomato and Onion Salad

Dewars 18 Year Blended Whisky

Only using Scotland’s finest 18 year old malt and grain whiskies to create the full, smooth & creamy blend that is Dewars 18.  They return their blend to vintage oak cask for double-aging.  Slow spoonfuls of honey poured over fruit.  Rich, golden and mellow.  Almond and vanilla cream with smooth butterscotch Soft, buttery and sweet.  A full finish, rich oak and deep velvet.

 Long, reassuring and lingering.

 

Crab and Shitake Stuffed Filet Mignon with Diver Scallops

Aberfeldy12 Year Single Malt Whisky

Almost incense-like on the nose, with heather honey and a fruity softness, notes of pineapple, toast and cereal.  On the palate; full bodied & syrupy, lingering on the tongue like a liqueur.  Full flavored finish with the perfume characteristics becoming more spicy and a bitter hint of Seville oranges in a decidedly dry finish.

 

Chocolate Explosion with Vanilla Ice Cream

Aberfeldy 21 Year Single Malt Whisky

Deep gold color with amber highlights and a pleasing aroma of heathery honey followed by a fruity softness, hints of vanilla and burnt wood.  Full flavored on the palate with touches of Seville oranges lingering on the tongue.  Full bodied with a long, spicy, dry finish.

 

$74.95 per person reservations required

Includes two hand rolled cigars

8th ANNUAL GENT’S NIGHT OUT Irish Whiskey

February 24th, 2011 by chuck

8th ANNUAL GENT’S NIGHT OUT

March 10th 2011

6 P.M.  SOCIAL TIME:

BUTLER PASSED HORS D’OEUVRES

 

Walleye Dumplings with a lemon burre blanc,

 

Mushroom Poppers filled with Italian sausage,

parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese,

 

Smoked Salmon Crostini

 

served with Water Street Inn’s

Applejack Spiced Jameson

 

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.

 

 

$69.95 per person reservations required
