Secret Bourbon-Pop Up Coming To West Village With Random Invites

WEST VILLAGE, NY — A unique cocktail experience is coming to the West Village for those who are alright with leaving their night out in the hands of someone else.

Legent Bourbon is hosting a one-night pop-up bourbon omakase experience at a secret location on Tuesday in the Lower Manhattan neighborhood.

Interested participants can submit on Legent's website for a chance to be randomly chosen to take part in the experience.

The event is free for those who are selected.

You have to be 21 or over to attend, and those who are selected will be given further details, including the West Village address of the venue.

Omakase is generally known more in the United States related to sushi — but it is a Japanese word that means an experience where you leave all the choices up to a master of their craft — which in this case will be master mixologist Julia Momose.

"Introducing a totally new way to experience bourbon cocktails, leading mixologists will put a unique spin on omakase, a Japanese style of service most popular in the US for sushi dining, by crafting bespoke drinks with Legent specific to each guest’s particular taste preference and local seasonality," an event page for the pop-up reads.

Legent Bourbon is the end result of a collaboration between Jim Beam master distiller Fred Noe and House of Suntory chief blender Shinji Fukuyo. The alcohol is aged for at least four years before it is blended by Fukuyo.
