Bourbon Mash Tasting Event
Live ItemThe Crunkleton cordially welcomes you to a bourbon mash tasting event for up to 4 guests of your choosing in their Chapel Hill location. This bourbon mash bill tasting offers three different bourbons from each of the three mash bills allowing the guests to discern the flavor profiles for each. Through tasting and discussing these nine bourbons, guests will be able to understand why the bourbons taste the way they do and how they were able to create such distinct flavors. Additionally, guests will have a better appreciation for America's favorite spirit as they experience bourbon from this perspective where various styles and qualities are tasted together in one sitting.
At The Crunkleton signature cocktails and an unrivaled collection of curated spirits are served with style and finesse and are accompanied by as much of a story as you care to hear. Whether you want to engage in a deep discussion about the real origin of the Sazerac or simply be handed a cold bottle of Miller High Life, their attuned servers are there to provide you with your Crunkleton experience.

The Art Inside the Bottle
Live ItemEnjoy a unique evening at the NC Museum of Art for three couples on June 8th from 7pm - 9pm for "The Art Inside the Bottle" presented by The NC Museum of Art, Vitis House, and Catering Works! As part of this package each couple will also receive a wine trio tote bag which includes one sparkling wine, one red wine, and one white wine.
As with paint and music, wine is an expression of art, executed with feeling and passion. While Nature works to strike the proper chords, the winemakers' aim is to discover and evoke the very soul of the grape, just as the artist works to communicate through visual materials across time and distance.
This in-person event is a creative embrace of the reimagining of the People's Collection! Together with NCMA curator Maya Brooks, Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art, and Vitis House owner and wine educator, Doreen Colondres, we will dive into Identity, Place, and Power as themes that contextualize works of art and wine in specific and inspiring ways.
Join us on June 8th from 7pm-9pm for a very special evening to explore history, tradition, and process behind winemaking and artmaking at The Art Inside the Bottle. You will foster new insights in an immersive, sensory experience! Seven wines with custom-designed food pairings will be served as Maya speaks in person to share her expertise on seven important works of art from the Museum's Collection.
