The Dignitary
The Dignitary sits inside the Marriott Marquis Washington as an elevated whiskey den with Prohibition-era charm housed within modern sophistication. The contemporary bar features exposed brick walls, a striking red brick bar, red leather club chairs, and a working fireplace creating intimate nooks perfect for serious cocktail conversations. Forty local and regional bourbons line the shelves, and the outdoor patio extends the sophisticated experience into fresh air. Signature cocktails like Cherry Bourbon Flash blending Traverse Cherry Whiskey with cranberry and peach schnapps, and Smoke off the Barrel with its complex blend of rye, amaro, and Laphroaig mist, showcase the bartenders' expertise. The Dignitary Spritzer offers lighter options for those seeking refreshment. This is where whiskey appreciation meets modern elegance, perfect for both bourbon collectors and cocktail explorers.
