Benriach's World Whisky Day Menu by Woodcut
Step your World Whisky Day celebrations up a notch at this month-long limited edition menu at Woodcut at Barangaroo.
Overview
You've experienced the intoxicating highs of Negroni Week and Margarita Week, and now the time has come to turn your enthusiasm for drinking the finer things in life to whisky. World Whisky Day is officially happening on Saturday, May 20, and its existence provides whisky fans with an excuse (not that we need one) to partake in some of the world's finest.
If you want to take your World Whisky Day commitment to the next level, Woodcut Restaurant at Barangaroo has teamed up with legendary Scotch distiller Benriach for a special whisky-inspired menu. The star of the show is a first-of-its-kind dish touted as 'Benriach's Ultimate Scotch Fillet' — a creation masterminded by Woodcut's chef-owner, Ross Lusted, comprised of a wood-grilled Rangers Valley Scotch fillet, brushed with Benriach's Smoke Season Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky and grilled to perfection.
A full Smoke Season Benriach whisky-inspired menu and cocktail pairings will be available for a limited time in the lead up to World Whisky Day, from May 1-22. In addition to the scotch fillet is the Smoke Season BBQ duck with pickled plums, grilled shiitake and hazelnut crumb, or the pan-seared kingfish with smoked cauliflower puree, Brussels sprouts and dukkah.
And don't forget about the cocktail pairings. The Penicillin cocktail, made with Benriach Smoke Season and served with a ginger and honey syrup beautifully complements the smoky notes of the whisky and the fire and smoke techniques that are a hero of the Woodcut dining experience.
