CHARLOTTE, NC – Merchant & Trade, the premier 19th-floor rooftop bar and lounge at Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel, invites guests to experience “Yolanda’s World,” a one-of-a-kind cocktail journey unlike anything else in the Carolinas.
This ticketed event kicks off the evening with Four Corners of the Earth—the sultry Old Fashioned variation that earned Yolanda a spot among the Top 100 Bartenders in the U.S.—and Zacapa’s Mirage, the rich, elegant cocktail that secured her place in the Top 30. Then, be transported to Queen Charlotte’s Gems, a six-drink tasting flight and pop-up bar concept paying tribute to Charlotte’s historically Black neighborhoods.
