Join us for There and Back Again, a year-long tasting adventure where each event is inspired by your guide Chris Stemler’s personal travels and experiences influenced by a touch of Tolkien's magic. These gatherings are designed to be more than just tastings—they are opportunities to connect with a community of fellow food and drink lovers, all while savoring unique beverages from across the globe.
Tastings will take place on Friday evenings from 7-9 PM in our Founders Room, with small crudités and snacks to complement the experience. It’s about exploring new flavors, meeting new people and enjoying a global journey from the comfort of your seat.
Limited spots available—reserve today or book the full series to guarantee your spot! We can't wait to share this adventure with you!
