• Sip on a Hesburgh Manhattan, the Morris Inn at Notre Dame’s signature drink. Unlike the traditional Manhattan made with vermouth, whiskey, and bitters, the Hesburgh Manhattan is made with sweet cherry juice, Canadian Club whiskey, garnished with two cherries, and served on the rocks. It’s affectionately named after the iconic Father Hesburgh.
• Enjoy some time with Patrick Denis “Murf” Murphy, who has been a full-time bartender at the Morris Inn at Notre Dame since 1982. His patrons love to ask him about his experiences behind the bar. He has served people like Joe Montana, Father Ted Hesburgh, and many other Notre Dame greats. Guests travel from around the country to the Morris Inn at Notre Dame just to listen to Murf’s iconic stories about Notre Dame.
• Taste monthly Wine Academy Dinners at Sorin’s, Morris Inn at Notre Dame’s fine-dining restaurant. Each dinner features a five-course meal from Executive Chef Phil Gulis, perfectly paired with wines which have a Notre Dame connection and a presentation from the winemaker. Winemakers with a Notre Dame connection include Gallo and Paul Hobbs, both of whom have hosted monthly wine dinners at Sorin’s.
