Cocktail Class: Mezcal Mania

Mezcal has a bad-boy reputation, in no small part thanks to the trend started in the 1940’s of putting a worm in the bottom of the bottle. But today’s mezcals are sophisticated, well-crafted and varied spirits. Its smoky agave character is definitely divisive, and mezcal haters abound, but people who love mezcal really love mezcal, and this class is for you! Sampling + Cocktail making!

You’ll taste a few different bourbon whiskeys to explore their unique characteristics, then mix an identical cocktail with each to test the question of “how will these differences play out in a cocktail?” Finally, you’ll mix and sample some of our favorite bourbon cocktails and see if they become yours too! Your booking includes light snacks (pretzels, nuts).

The Last Word is closed during the class, so no food service is available. The class includes a combination of history and stories, technique instruction, and hands-on making of cocktails. Plus sampling, of course! Total consumption is equivalent to around 2 cocktails per person over the 2 hour class. Please anticipate working with other groups, sharing ingredients, and doing a mix of sitting or standing throughout the class.

Please note that we have a restricted table layout and use communal seating. Parties of two will almost always be seated with at least one other party of two. Groups of four or more will usually have their own table. You may request a private table in the “seat with” section of the booking form, and we will attempt to honor your request, but there is no guarantee that one will be available.
