One of the trends we really celebrate is the increasing interest among consumers in professional-level wine and spirits education. We've hosted a few Pro-Am events and here we're offering another one.
Paul will be leading a tasting and seminar on rum here at the restaurant on Monday, May 12 at noon. According to Forbes.com, Paul is “America’s foremost spirits expert.” I attended this seminar myself last year in New York and it's fantastic. It's an overview of the 2,300 year history of rum, from the wilds of ancient Pakistan in 300 BC to the present day. Paul will be joined by journalist/spirits authority Sean Ludford and they will guide you on this journey. You will also blind taste a flight of crazy-delicious award-winning Rums from Barbados, Guyana, St. Croix, Panama, Jamaica, Puerto Rico and more exotic places. At least one distiller (Shaun Caleb from El Dorado) will be in attendance.
This event is FREE to the trade and only $20 to consumers. It's a rare opportunity. If you are a 9-to-5er, this might just be the reason you've been looking for to take that vacation day!
