Landoll’s Mohican Castle — Marta Louise Ballroom
$69.99 per person | 21+ | Zero-proof pairings available
Begin the holiday season with an unforgettable evening at the Castle. The Yuletide Spirits Banquet is a five-course tasting and cocktail pairing dinner, set in our warm, candlelit banquet hall decorated for the season with classic Christmas touches.
Guests will be seated at communal tables, creating a shared, festive experience while holiday music fills the room. Each course is a chef-crafted tasting, designed to pair perfectly with a handcrafted mini holiday cocktail (or a zero-proof version, if preferred).
This is not a traditional sit-down dinner — it’s a guided tasting experience that captures the magic of the season through food, drink, and atmosphere.
