Sourdough Saloon - Dawson City

I was in Dawson City for a small wedding on August 14th (yes, I’m super slow doing my reviews but better late than never they say) & one of the planned activities was the Sour Toe Shot. Unfortunately, the captain was not in that night. However, the staff made accommodations & allowed us time for each wedding guest to get the opportunity to do the acclaimed shot! But our only option was the Yukon Jack whiskey… which was perfectly acceptable. I was a bit worried about shooting straight whiskey, honestly. But it turns out I shouldn’t have been. It is DELICIOUS & doesn’t “burn” at all like I expected it to. It’s more a sweet taste, like a liqueur (I’ll post a picture of the bottle). The toe is a bit “gnarly,” though. It’s black. And it doesn’t look like a toe (it kinda looks like a dried up cat turd). But whatever, when in Rome….(or Dawson City)…. I’m really glad I did the shot. It’s a part of the whole Dawson City experience. I would recommend taking the time to do it! AND you get a certificate you can take home & frame. PS. Aug 14, 2024, we paid $16 per shot of Yukon Jack + the experience. We did not dine at this location, so I can’t comment on the food. I already had my rental car parked at this location as I was staying at the Downtown.
