• Harlen’s Medicine – During Prohibition, Buffalo Trace was one of only six American distilleries that were licensed to craft and distribute medicinal liquor. This spin on an Edison’s Medicine cocktail is crafted with Buffalo Trace Distillery’s Wheatley Vodka named for Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley as well as lime, yellow chartreuse, agave, basil and strawberries.
• Baker’s Corazon – Author Charles H. Baker’s post-Prohibition book, “The Gentleman’s Companion,” chronicles his globetrotting, culinary-focused travels and includes cocktail recipes crafted with the world’s many spirits. Guests can sip the Baker’s Corazon inspired by his book, which includes Corazon Tequila, house-made Huckleberry Hideout Moonshine, Luxardo Bianco Bitters, lime cordial, firewater bitters and ginger ale.
• Lucky 7 Sazerac – With more than 100 years of history, this classic Sazerac Cocktail includes Sazerac Rye, a sugar cube, bitters and an absinthe rinse.
• Irish Smash – Following the Irish War of Independence, the 1920s saw a significant wave of Irish emigration to the U.S. The Underground’s Irish Smash cocktail includes Paddy’s Irish Whiskey, Centerba Herbal Liqueur, mint and lemon.
• The Expat – Many of the United States’ most well-recognized bartenders left America for Paris in the wake of Prohibition. Stateside, cognac — a French liquor — was used in a handful of popular cocktails, exemplifying America’s rebellious spirit toward the new law. The Expat features White X Cognac, lime, brown sugar, Creme de Peche and chocolate bitters.

ABOUT THE UNDERGROUND
The Underground is an immersive Prohibition history exhibition featuring a speakeasy, distillery and private VIP room in the basement of The Mob Museum, the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement. Artifacts from the 1920s and 1930s tell the intriguing story of the Prohibition era, which not only saw a proliferation of bootlegged booze and the meteoric growth of organized crime outfits but also had a profound, lasting impact on society, specifically making way for modern cocktail culture. A seasonal cocktail menu gives guests the opportunity to try contemporary takes on classic Prohibition-era cocktails. The menu and atmosphere have landed the speakeasy on several “best cocktail bars in Las Vegas” lists. Distillery tastings allow participants to learn about Prohibition and its impact on a variety of spirits and drinking habits while tasting a few of the Museum’s moonshines. The distilling program has received numerous accolades, including “Best Moonshine” at the 2020 International Whiskey Competition, “Best in Class” and “Gold” and “Silver Medals” at the 2024 American Distilling Institute’s International Spirits Competition and “Gold” and “Silver Medals” at the 2022, 2023 and 2024 California Craft Spirits Competition.
