A ton of things have been reopening in Disney World lately!
Let’s Go to Disney World!
We’ve seen the reopening of pre-shows, single rider lines, and the dining room at La Cava del Tequila! We also found out that Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge will reopen on August 26th, which hopefully means the return of restaurants like Boma and Jiko as well! But for now, we just found where an EXCLUSIVE Jiko drink is hiding while the restaurant remains closed!
This is Jiko’s Bain’s Barrel-Aged African Whiskey!
Bain’s Barrel-Aged African Whiskey
The house barrel-aged whiskey used to only be available at Jiko, but since they’re not open right now, you can currently find it at Sanaa!
Sanaa
The drink will cost you $18 because it’s rung up as an Old Fashioned, then there’s a slight upcharge for the Bain’s.
Is this making you thirsty?
But it’s absolutely delicious!
A great afternoon cocktail!
We suggest having the drink with Sanaa’s famous bread service.
A perfect pairing!
So, if you love whiskey or have been missing the exclusive liquor at Jiko, head on over to Sanaa and grab a glass! You will need to ask since it’s not currently on the menu. You can also order an African Manhattan. We’ll keep you updated if we find out when Jiko will reopen, and we’ll be there to give you a review as soon as it does! Stay tuned to DFB for all the Disney news and updates.
