Our riff on a classic Bee's Knees honors the late Andrea Paternoster, founder of Mieli Thun and dear friend of Chef Tony and Cathy Mantuano.
At Mieli Thun, they are nomadic beekeepers, moving their hives throughout the Italian countryside to at least 60 different locations, and the results are… well, frankly, the bee's knees.
Inspired by the flock of birds seen floating above the Nashville skyline from our rooftop locale, this cocktail is an agave riff on the classic Penicillin recipe, replacing the blended scotch with tequila and the peaty Islay scotch topper with a smoky mezcal infused with butterfly pea flower.
Twenty-one stories above the city of Nashville, The Joseph's rooftop bar, Denim, offers a selection of thoughtfully curated cocktails.
Our experts collaborate to develop each new seasonal menu with the utmost attention to detail, flavor, and presentation. This is their story, where the spirits are the stars and the guests are the focus.
Denim is proud to introduce The Joseph's unique expression to the Heaven's Door portfolio. Highlighted by notes of Bing cherry, toasted vanilla, honey, and subtle hints of clove and licorice, The Joseph's handcrafted blend of bourbon and rye embodies the depth of rich conversation and the edge of a city alive with art.
Try it neat, on ice, or in our new Spirited cocktail, Life Is But a Dram with espresso-infused Carpano Antica, Angostura bitters and orange.
