Royal Ballrooms C & D, Hotel Monteleone
Come enjoy the Spirit of New Orleans® at the Herbsaint
Tasting Room. One of America’s oldest Spirit brands and with deep roots
in the Big Easy, Herbsaint was created by New Orleans pharmacist Marion
Legendre and launched just after Prohibition. Herbsaint has become
famous over the years as an integral ingredient in the Official Cocktail
of New Orleans – The Sazerac – but it is also a favorite of bartenders
and cocktail lovers who enjoy its unique flavor and interesting
mixability.
Guests will enjoy a variety of Herbsaint cocktails, to
include the winning cocktail of the recent Melodic Mixology Competition,
sponsored by Herbsaint and Offbeat Magazine. Guests can also make their
way through the historic artifact and photography gallery as they
sample delectable New Orleans-Herbsaint inspired creations during live
cooking demonstrations. Live musician, Mark Weliky will entertain guests
as they partake in The Spirit of New Orleans®. A photo booth will also
be available for guests to bring home a souvenir from their visit to New
Orleans.
