Featured Whiskey
When it comes to whiskey, Mohegan Sun’s Select Barrel Series will offer up only the best. Available at Clay Pipe Cigar Bar, novelle and TAO Asian Bistro & Lounge will be highlights like Breckenridge Bourbon, which is an 86-proof bourbon with a deep honey-amber hue and enticing aromas of butterscotch, candied orange and crisp apple. Another sought after whiskey featured as part of the Select Barrel Series is Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Select and this famous whiskey provides rich caramel notes intertwined with toasted oak and hints of ripe banana. The palate delivers layers of vanilla and warm baking spices, complemented by notes of roasted nuts. One more popular whiskey featured in the Select Barrel Series is Litchfield Bourbon Whiskey which is crafted in Litchfield, Connecticut. Aged in #4 charred barrels, the 92-proof bourbon gives off a beautiful amber hue and releases inviting aromas of vanilla, butterscotch, and a hint of apple. Rich flavors of caramel and vanilla with subtle notes of pepper and cinnamon lead to a smooth, balanced finish on the palate.
In addition to the top-notch selection of whiskeys, Mohegan Sun’s Select Barrel Series also tees up a phenomenal local gin available at Clay Pipe Cigar Bar and novelle. The gin highlighted in this series is Waypoint Barrel Aged Gin which is crafted in Bloomfield, Connecticut. This gin is a 92-proof spirit that bridges the gap between classic gin and aged whiskey and is distilled with juniper, citrus, and lemon verbena. The gin is then rested in oak barrels to add depth and warmth which results in a fresh juniper and citrus aroma with vanilla, caramel, botanical spice, and a hint of lemon verbena.
Featured Rum
When it comes to rum, the Select Barrel Series stays on point with a Cruzan 5-Year-Old Rum. Available at Bobby’s Burger Palace, Clay Pipe Cigar Bar, and novelle, this highlighted rum is an 80-proof blend of rums, aged a minimum of five years in old oak barrels. Light bakery notes with hints of oak and honey are present to the nose with a harmonious blend of rich vanilla wood tones, cherry, and cinnamon, with a smooth caramel finish to the taste. This rum embodies the laid-back spirit of the Caribbean with its balanced profile.
Featured Tequila
The featured tequila in Mohegan Sun’s Select Barrel Series features a single barrel unique expression available at Clay Pipe Cigar Bar and novelle. The tequila highlighted in this series is Corazón Reposado Tequila, by Casa San Matías and aged in Colonel E.H. Taylor bourbon barrels. It’s a distinctive fusion of tequila tradition and bourbon character that is aged for over 10 months. The aroma is a mix of vanilla, butterscotch, and dried fig, with a hint of black pepper. On the palate, notes of caramel, dark spice, gentle oak, and a touch of salinity, provide a smooth finish.

The Bacon Brothers
Saturday, September 13th | 7:00pm
For The Bacon Brothers, music is all about exploration. Michael and Kevin Bacon have spent the better part of three decades creating their own mix of Folk, Rock, Soul, and Country music. They call that diverse sound “forosoco,” and it’s taken them around the world, from headlining gigs in Japan to American performances at iconic venues like Carnegie Hall, the Grand Ole Opry and Gruene Hall. The two siblings may be bound together by blood and a mutual love of American Roots music, but they’ve grown into sharp songwriters and cinematic storytellers with their own distinct approaches. Ballad Of The Brothers makes room for both of those approaches, offering a mix of edgy Alt-Rock (“Take Off This Tattoo”), Motown-inspired Soul (“Put Your Hand Up”), fingerpicked Folk (“Let That Be Enough”), and everything in between.
Ticket information for The Bacon Brothers is forthcoming. Guests are encouraged to check out mohegansun.com/entertainment for details!
