Crafted & Cured is hosting its first pairing event in Troy from 6 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 23 featuring whiskey and charcuterie.

“Our knowledgeable experts will guide you through the tasting experience, providing insights into the unique characteristics of each pairing,” the business wrote on the event page. “Whether you’re a bourbon/whiskey connoisseur or just curious to explore new flavors, this event promises a memorable evening of indulgence.”

The event will include four whiskeys paired with meat, cheese and dessert on individual charcuterie boards with house-cured accoutrements.

Pairings include:

  • Russell’s Reserve 10-year old Bourbon by Wild Turkey paired with Bourbon & Sour Cherries Salami by Brooklyn Cured
  • Yellowstone American Single Malt Whiskey by Limestone Branch paired with Bison Bresaola by Green Plains Bison Ranch in South Charleston
  • Famous Grouse Smoky Black Blended Scotch Whisky by Glenturret Distillery paired with II Crostini Italian Buffalo Milk Cheese
  • Barrell Craft Spirits Gray Label Seagrass 16-year Canadian Rye paired with house-prepared Chocolate Bark Dessert

Crafted & Cured’s new location at 8 S. Market St. was originally constructed in 1929 as The First Troy National Bank, which was formerly known as US Bank. The space features the original architecture and one of two original safety deposit vaults.

Owners Andy Routson and Christian Alvarez reopened the establishment in early February after closing its doors in downtown Dayton in 2020. They recently added a bar to their second floor featuring bourbon and craft cocktails.

The pairing event costs $70 plus processing fees and is limited to 30 participants. For more information, visit www.eventbrite.com.
