The Biltmore has loosened its black tie and is offering lounge lizards its innovative Cocktail Flight Nights, every Wednesday in the Ty Lounge. On a recent Wednesday, from 5:30 to 8 p.m., the bar served up a gorgeous holder with three ounce-and-a-half cocktails exquisitely garnished (as any fine drink should be). Each week features a different premium liquor as a base. February 6 featured Chopin vodka — which, coincidently, had just sponsored endless SBIFF soirees — and the star drink of that week’s trio of Pomtini, Pear Drop, and White Grape Delight was the middle offering, rich with fresh pear juice and none of a pear’s gritty texture. It’s hard not to feel swell at a marble-topped bar as the sun, ever a proper guest, sinks elegantly over Butterfly Beach. Plus, there are complimentary hors d’oeuvres, and not just the tasty almonds but, for our visit, a flavor bomb tuna tartare, quail egg, caviar, horseradish chip combo. On February 27, you can “Leap into Spring” with 10 Cane Rum cocktails.
