Fermented beverages have been around for over 13,000 years, but have you ever wondered when and where in the world distilling those fermented beverages first began?
In this in-depth course, attendees will taste through a flight of thirteen of the most popular spirit categories that we know and love today, while learning about their origin, what makes each unique, and how technology has evolved over the centuries to pave the way for today’s Golden Age of distilling.
In addition to learning about each spirit, attendees will receive instruction on the fundamentals of tasting, guidance on identifying each spirit category based on their trademark qualities, develop an understanding and appreciation of their nuances, and what to look for in distillates of superior quality. At the end of the course, you’re certain to leave feeling like a certified spirits connoisseur!
Each attendee will get to enjoy three classic cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, all while learning about the history and how-tos of the drinks being made, and why they’ve become beloved classics.
Attendees must be 21 years of age. Class promptly begins at 12pm and concludes at 2:30pm. Hors d’oeuvres will be served at the beginning of the course. Guests are encouraged to stick around after the course concludes to enjoy our Sunday Happy Hour service at 3pm!
