Just a sneak peak on what to expect for whiskey night. At Elisa’s, we believe whiskey is far more than a spirit enjoyed neat or in a cocktail. When thoughtfully paired with cuisine, it becomes an ingredient of remarkable depth—enhancing flavor, texture,
and aroma in ways that transform a simple dish into a memorable experience.
For this special evening, Chef Paolo has curated a tasting menu inspired by the character and
nuance of distinguished whiskeys from around the world—each thoughtfully paired to highlight
its unique profile and complement the artistry of Italian-inspired cuisine.
