Each cocktail tells the tale of a time long ago, and with every sip, attendees will unlock a door to the past. Explore Twain’s favorite liquor of choice, whiskey, or enjoy the fun notes of his custom “Hanky Panky” drink. City Post Executive Chef Adrian Corkill will pair each drink with carefully crafted bites for an evening of timeless literature, history, and culinary excellence. It will be a true night of toasting the mysterious Gilded Age and celebrating one of the greatest writers of all time.
