Liquid Gold: The Art of Italian Digestivos & Small Bites
Thursday, September 24, 5:30-8:30 pm
Bring the authentic spirit of a sun-drenched Italian terrace into your own kitchen! The perfect Italian meal doesn’t end with the main course—it concludes with a digestivo, the time-honored tradition of an artisanal after-dinner liqueur.
In this immersive, dual-concept masterclass, Chef Fabio opens his private recipe book to teach you the master technique of spirit infusion and syrup blending. Whether your taste leans toward a bright, classic Limoncello, a rich espresso liqueur, or a traditional herbal wild fennel digestivo, you will learn the exact science of crafting them all.
 The Guided Tasting: Sample Chef Fabio’s own pre-matured, private batches of these premium liqueurs.
 The Hands-On Infusion: Chef Fabio will supply the premium mason jars, clean spirit bases, and fresh aromatics. You will choose your preferred flavor profile and actively mix your own initial two-week infusion to take home.
 The Culinary Pairings: While your jars infuse, Chef Fabio will guide you through assembling and styling two elegant small bites designed specifically to balance your liqueurs: Lemon-Herb Goat Cheese Crostini with Hot Honey and Deconstructed Espresso-Tiramisu Parfaits.
 The Artisan Takeaway: You will go home with your active infusing jar, a beautiful imported Italian-style glass display bottle for your finished liqueur, and a gorgeous printed master recipe booklet.
