When craft cocktails became all the rage several years ago, whiskey figured prominently in most menus. Today that’s still the case. However, as bartenders vie to keep up with the next trending drink wave, eyes are turning toward clear spirits.
Vodka, gin, rum, cachaca and pisco are increasingly finding their way to the tops of menus as mixologists discover more about them and how to play up their more subtle flavor profiles in tasty drinks.
Learn more about clear spirits on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. at the Wine House as a group of professional L.A.-area mixologists including Alex Straus, Aidan Demarest and Marcos Tello pour tastes of these underrated liquors and explain their oft-overlooked qualities.
A live band will play and food will be served. Tickets cost $59 and can be purchased online.
The Wine House, 2311 Cotner Ave., Los Angeles (310) 479-3731.
