Kellogg Alumni Club of New York

cordially invites you to a

Asian Tapas & Premium Sake Tasting

Please join the Kellogg Club of New York and New York Vintners as we explore the extensive possibilities in pairing premium rice wines with Asian Tapas. During the 90 minute class, you will taste one sparkling wine, two reds and two whites that each offer an incredible, yet misunderstood, culinary experience. You will also learn how to prepare a variety of small plates that compliment the flavors and characteristics of the sakes. We are very fortunate to welcome Monica Samuels, who will lead the class and explain the origins and history of sake, its production techniques and the varying styles of this unique wine. Once the class is over, you'll be ready to start incorporating sake into your next dinner party or Asian dining experience. 

Our somellier received her training from the American Sommelier Association and the Sake Education Council. In fact, Monica was part of the first group to pass John Gauntner's advanced sake specialist exam in 2008. In addition to being a sake educator for New York Vintners, she is a sake ambassador for Southern Wine & Spirits Company. Before that, Monica was the national sake sommelier for the Sushisamba Restaurant Group.

This event is open to all alumni of Kellogg, their friends, families, colleagues and invited guests.  For more information, please contact Carolyn Amato KSM'06.
