Master distillers from Four Roses and Angels Envy, Jim Rutledge and Wes Henderson, respectively, will speak to the group as they indulge in a customized, six-course, pork-centric menu created by Steak 954's very own chef Jason Smith and pastry chef Sarah Magoon.
This year, the bourbon offerings have expanded. There will be three rolling bars, as well as a limited edition Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon to celebrate its 125th anniversary.
