On Friday, November 14th, Smoking Goose will welcome a select few guests for an exclusive Thanksgiving tasting party. For $60 per person, guests will be welcomed into the aging room at the Holy Cross location for a peek behind the charcuterie curtain.

Along with a tasting menu and paired cocktails, the ticket includes early-bird access to limited-release Thanksgiving specials. At the end of the event, Smoking Goose will open their shop for after-hours deals, including first dibs on some of their holiday offerings.
Tickets include two drink vouchers, valid for any of 8th Day Distillery’s custom cocktails, beer, wine, or non-alcoholic drinks. Guests also get passed hors d’oeuvres and their pick of walk-up tasting stations throughout the evening. Some of the samples on offer include Smoking Goose’s new Plum-Absinthe Muscovy Duck, which has been dry-aged 30 days and smoked over cherry wood. They’ll also have their stuffed brie en croûte, foie gras mousse, whipped bone marrow, and the latest seasonal treats like cheeses, seafood, and paired accompaniments. Anticipate light bites for days, finished off with a spruce tip sugar cookie.
Advance tickets are required for this exclusive event. Smoking Goose will be running more events, tours, and tastings throughout the holiday season.
