Join us for a three course seminar as we delve deep into the diverse world of Mexican spirits, covering how ancestral communities and techniques are navigating legislation and international markets. Maya Lalouani, Mid-Atlantic Brand Ambassador for 5 Sentidos, and Dee Jones, Brand Manager from Seelbach's, will join our Lead Whisk(e)y Advisor Chris Leung in hosting.

We'll ground ourselves in the history of the space and how production has evolved, then move onto tasting, cocktailing, and how we interface with spirits as consumers.

Lunch will be provided, with a Happy Hour featuring Rums of Mexico, Alambique Serrano, 5 Sentidos and Seelbach's, following the event.

Select bottles featured during the seminar will be available for retail purchase.
