"Bourbon sits steps away from the capital and is known for its whiskey and bourbon stock, which numbers in the hundreds, collected by proprietor Kristian Niemi. Seasonal cocktails, many created by mixologist Kat Hunter, are boozy and balanced with rounded, melty layers. An annual Tiki Week in July spans 14 days, and the restaurant and its adjoining second bar go all out with decor and a menu that is planned year-round." - Stephanie Burnette
