Description

American consumers are very used to sorting distilled spirits by category; Vodka, Whiskey, Gin, Rum, Tequila, and Brandy are all familiar terms that conjure up a rough idea about what the bottle will contain. More adventurous imbibers may be familiar with specific or exotic terms and subcategories - bourbon and scotch, mezcal and sotol, liqueurs, amaro, aquavit, and other traditional categories adorn these spirits, though they are often pigeonholed into the broader, more familiar categories. Yet the potential of distilling is so enormous that spirits can be made that do not fit under any previously devised moniker, spirits that defy categorization. In this class, Evan Christie will delve deep into the world of distilled spirits. Expect novel ingredients, unconventional processes, and unique flavorings. Some spirits are similar to a known category but violate basic rules that demarcate a specific spirit. Others are entirely unique, genre-defying creations whose very essence defies classification. Come explore the wider world of spirits with us, and leave the comfortable categories behind. Must be 21+ to attend.
