You don’t reeeealllly need an excuse to drink whiskey though Sonsie has just the thing to twist your arm on Monday, August 19th: a visit from Richard Kolack from Michter’s Distillery and a multi-course bourbon dinner. The longtime guru of the Louisville, Kentucky distillery will be stopping by the Newbury Street eatery for the evening to share some pours from the company’s iconic catalog alongside chef Gilvandro Barreto’s classic American menu, including tastes of Michter’s whiskey, Michter’s Sour Mash, Michter’s Bourbon, Michter’s Rye whiskey and Michter’s cocktails. Check out the menu below and snag tickets here for $100 per person. The fun kicks off at 6:30pm, and be sure to bring a couple of extra bucks because all of the spirits and other Michter’s specialties will be available for additional taste and purchase after dinner. Give the restaurant a call at 617.351.2500 and watch for any updates on their IG.
