All-American Whiskey Dinner @ Max’s Oyster Bar

Max’s Oyster Bar Presents

An All-American Whiskey Dinner

Featuring Selections from HEAVEN HILL DISTILLERY

With Special Guest Speaker Richard Fiorillo, Regional Director, Heaven Hill Brands

Founded shortly after the end of Prohibition, Heaven Hill is the largest independent, family-owned and operated distilled spirits supplier in the country, and the second largest holder of aging Bourbon Whiskey in the world. With a number of very well recognized brands under the Heaven Hill Distillery label, this is a company that is continuously innovating and creating new styles and marks. They are also known for making tremendous bourbon and other whiskies at very affordable prices. For this dinner we have selected some of each: great styles, great values and top-level aged whiskey. These are paired with the cuisine of Chef Bob Peterson.
