Learn Everything There Is To Know About Mezcal

There are a lot of cocktail classes out there - most involve watching a short presentation and then drinking and drinking and drinking until you don't really remember what the class was supposed to be about. This one is different. Next week, Fountainhead is hosting one of the most extensive classes we've ever seen about Mezcal, the Mexican spirit of the moment that is sweeping the city.
On Monday, June 24 and Tuesday, June 25, Master Mezcalier (our new favorite word) will be hosting two 4-hour sessions for bartenders, restaurant professionals, chefs and interested amateurs. The first, on Monday, will cover production, history, taste and manufacturing. The second, on Tuesday, will focus on mixology.
Each session is (gulp) $250, but by the time you are done, you will know everything there is to know about the smoky, delicious spirit. Plus, you'll have a fancy certificate to hang on your wall and you'll be able to tell your friends that you are a Mezcalier.
