SUMMARY:Mastering Craft Mixology at Kitch
DESCRIPTION:Mastering Craft Mixology at Kitch allows aspiring home bartenders to learn professional cocktail techniques from one of the country’s leading spirits educators on Friday\, August 7\, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Held at Kitch in Mystic\, this hands-on class explores the history\, science\, and techniques behind classic cocktails while teaching participants how to create bar-quality drinks at home. \nThe evening is led by Chef Anthony Caporale\, an internationally recognized mixology author\, educator\, and consultant who serves as Director of Spirits Education and Research at New York City’s acclaimed Institute of Culinary Education. Caporale has spent more than a decade teaching beverage professionals\, authored the cocktail chapter of Recipes for Innovation\, produced the long-running Off-Broadway musical series The Imbible\, appeared on the Smithsonian Channel\, and curated the Temperance and Trade exhibition at Mystic Seaport Museum.
