There are cocktail events and then there is this. šŸ„‚

@adventuretimebar launched their Spotlight Series and if you are even remotely into cocktails, Denver’s hospitality scene, or just genuinely incredible human beings- you need to get yourself a ticket. šŸŽŸļø 

The concept is simple but the execution is anything but. Each Sunday, one of Denver’s best bartenders gets a full platform to tell their story through a five course cocktail and small bite pairing experience. We’re talking custom menus, music, lighting, and an intimacy that you just don’t find anywhere else.

The first event featured @jpaulwebb_12 and his experience — The Art of Escape — took us through departure, nostalgia, adventure, romance, celebration, solitude, and hope. Each chapter paired with a cocktail, a story, and a defining moment from his journey. There were bubbles, there was fire, there were heartfelt moments, and I won’t confirm or deny whether there were tears. It was wildly impressive and deeply personal and I genuinely did not want it to end.

These are your favorite Denver bartenders-the ones behind the bars you already love- getting a chance to show you who they really are. That alone is worth the ticket. 😊

Here’s who’s up next:

šŸø June 21st — Celeste Rangel @raunchynrowdy, @unionlodge1

Going beyond Farm to Table, @saltboulder is going a step further in sustainability local agriculture to bring the best ingredients to Boulder. 

The TL;DR - Was fortunate to come along @ocn_eats_boulder to try @saltboulder’s revamped menu including perfectly balanced new cocktails and delicious new dishes. What to get:
- The 3 Courses (cocktails, WOW)
- Fire Roasted Chicken (incredible)
- Pan Seared Tuna
- Heirloom Burrata
- Nectar/Mandarine Dessert

—— šŸ“ Full Review ——

While I’ve heard so many good things about Salt, I was not ready to be so impressed by their cocktails. The 3 Courses, aside from looking absolutely stunning, had enough to surprise you and yet comfort you. A must try if you are ever up in Boulder.

The Roasted Chicken was on a bed of smooth mashed potatoes and proscuitto di parma whole grain mustard sauce that hit so hard. Another must order. 

Also enjoyed the Pan Seared Ahi Tuna with a gorgeous and phenomenal balsamic brown butter moat surrounding it and a very fresh Heirloom Burrata. The mussels were not my favorite but they did have some complex flavors that I appreciated. 

The dessert was also fantastic, felt like a deconstructed nectar/mandarine crunch with comforting warmth to counter the creamy coldness of the ice cream.

Overall, Salt is a new Boulder favorite for me. Their mission to go beyond farm to table and practice ā€œSoil-to-Tableā€ really comes through in their ingredients and the cocktails just blew me away.

I want to thank the entire Salt team as well as @ocn_eats_boulder for letting me come along.
