Named after the iconic level of char used in our barrels, Char No. 3 is a rooftop dining event that celebrates the bold, transformative power of fire. Join us for a four-course culinary experience where smoke is center stage for every bite and sip.
Start the evening with hors d’oeuvres near the water tower, followed by an exclusive tour weaving you through the Factory and up to the rooftop. Once seated, experience four courses of flame-kissed dishes and cocktails that pay tribute to char in all its forms—not just whiskey. Expect inventive flavors, smoke-infused cocktails, oak-aged notes, and unexpected pairings – each feature telling its own fiery story.
As the night deepens, enjoy a premium cigar, sip something extraordinary, and savor an evening designed to ignite the senses.
Don’t miss this rooftop experience of smoke, spirit, and flavor.
