When you pair one of the world’s best bourbons with an award-winning steakhouse experience, magic happens.  Crafted from a grain recipe, also known as a mash bill, of 72% corn, 18% rye and 10% malted barley, Woodford Reserve whiskies boast the perfect balance of sweet, spice and nuttiness.   Following an extended fermentation and the careful batching of whiskies distilled using both pot still and column still methods, Woodford Reserve is matured in bespoke new, charred, white oak barrels.

Fall in love with whiskey all over again when you join us for this seasonally-inspired dinner featuring a menu tailored to the specific flavor profiles of some of our favorite Woodford Reserve bourbon and rye expressions.  Sure to be a fun date night or a unique dinner with a group of friends who don’t mind getting into some whiskey business, make plans to sip and savor the night away with Ruth’s Chris and Woodford Reserve.

Limited space, advance reservations required.

COFFEE & TEA SERVICE


Dating all the way back to 1812, fine bourbons were being made on the site where part of the Woodford Reserve Distillery is now located, so it’s no surprise that the Woodford brand is inspired by bourbon’s rich history. Originally gaining notoriety for the perfectly balanced taste of their Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, today the Woodford Reserve portfolio is comprised of a collection of fine whiskey spirits that embody substance and style.

Whether you’re new to whiskey or a collector of rare bourbons, Woodford Reserve has something for every palate. Enjoy it neat, on the rocks or in a cocktail; no matter how you prefer your whiskey, you’ll appreciate the many flavor notes that dance on your palate with every sip. Join us as we celebrate the time-honored traditions of Woodford Reserve and Ruth’s Chris Steak House, two brands that embrace the philosophy that with the right ingredients, you can create something truly memorable.
