Sunday, September 22
Cocktail Tasting at The Avery (18 Luongo Sq., Providence)
"Everything you ever wanted to know about mezcal (but were afraid to ask)" featuring Del Maguey Single Village Mezcal:
Participants will be walked through the history of mezcal and tequila. Then, the tasting begins. We'll start with Dublo Tequila as a baseline for a fine example of the style. Then, it's all Mezcal. To be specific, Del Maguey Single Village Mezcals. We'll taste the original four Single Villages.
After tasting the spirits by themselves, we'll then taste two different cocktails to get an idea of how to use mezcal as a mixer. Is that enough for you?
2-4pm. Tickets are $40/person, and seating is limited to 25 people. Click here for tickets.
