Despite the bitter chill outside, dozens of people attended a five-course dinner Jan. 22 at Untitled, 111 W. Kinzie St., that featured Angel’s Envy bourbon. The courses included Hooks 10-year cheddar, sherry caramel, black walnut bread, arugula; Skuna Bay Salmon Jar, whipped creme fraiche, smoked salmon roe; pork belly confit, sweet potato biscuits, cherry mostarda, kohlrabi slaw; smoked Slagel Farms Chicken, soy bourbon glazed, braised tuscan kale; and blood orange Chiboust, rye ice cream, burnt sugar brittle and blood orange jellies.
The bourbon-based cocktails paired with the courses were the Old Fashioned, 4th Street Fizz, Mad Hatter (which includes vermouth and bitters), Whiskey Daisy and Dark Angel (Angel’s Envy, along with white and dark Godiva liqueurs). There was also a very informative lecture about the criteria for bourbon and, more specifically, Angel’s Envy. For more about Untitled, see www.UntitledChicago.com. Text and photo by Andrew Davis
