Mastering Bourbon Cocktails: Beyond the Old Fashioned

The Old Fashioned made bourbon famous — but it’s only the beginning.

In this hands-on cocktail class, we explore three completely different expressions of bourbon to showcase its versatility, balance, and depth.

You’ll receive guided instruction on how to craft:

• The Bourbon Smash – bright, fresh, and seasonal
• The Boulevardier – bold, stirred, and spirit-forward
• The Classic Whiskey Sour – silky, balanced, and finished with egg white

Our team will walk you through proper shaking vs. stirring techniques, dilution control, citrus balance, and egg white emulsification.

You’ll sample each cocktail, then choose your favorite to craft yourself behind the bar.

Whether you’re bourbon-curious or already an Old Fashioned loyalist, this class will expand the way you think about America’s native spirit.
