About the event
A bourbon pairing dinner with a clear focus
This Durham dinner centers on Knob Creek bourbon in a pairing format. The event name points directly to the featured bourbon subject, while the program description frames the evening as a celebration of bourbon with Alley Twenty Six and Che Ramos. Knob Creek is also identified as a distillery label from Clermont, giving the dinner a specific producer focus rather than a general whiskey theme.
The pairing-dinner format is the main planning detail available for the program. No individual courses, pours, bottle lineup, menu items, or price details are provided here, so the useful takeaway is the verified structure: a bourbon pairing dinner built around Knob Creek bourbon and hosted in Durham.
