Winter Cocktail Class Series

Gulch Proprietors, Steffen Rasile and Tyrrell Hibbard, bring a passion for cocktails to the tasting room cocktail program, and they love to share that program knowledge with their customers. Learn from these two experts at one of our semi-regular cocktail classes.

Classes are typically centered around a cocktail style, upcoming holiday, or spirit category. Tickets are $30 per seat, which includes class instruction and cocktails.

Space is limited and advance ticket purchase is required. See below for details and seating availability.

February 15 - The Art of the Martini

Perhaps the most iconic cocktail, the martini is generally simple, cold, and to the point. But endless iterations of this template allow the martini to address any number of flavor profiles and preferences. In this class we play around with the martini format to create savory, sweet, or dry cocktails, but always boozy and cold.

March 15 - Zest Practices

After spirits and sugar, citrus is perhaps the most significant component in mixed drinks, their juices and oils being among the most prevalent non-alcoholic ingredients in cocktails. Though most often used as an acidifier, citrus has other applications to mixology. This class will look at the outsized influence that citrus plays through those various applications. What is the importance of acid? When is fresh citrus absolutely critical? How do you make the most out of the citrus you have? Join us to learn citrus Zest Practices.

April 19 - All Washed Up

This more advanced class isn’t just for the more adventurous home bartenders–it’s for anyone who appreciates a truly good drink. We will explore classic and modern techniques that add flavors directly to spirits by “washing” them with fat and proteins. This behind-the-scenes look at the preparation behind memorable cocktails will leave you anything but washed up.
