The Experience

keyboard_arrow_up

If you’re even a little cocktail-curious, you’ve heard about bitters, the must-have flavor ingredient behind the world’s best-loved drinks. Now it’s time for you to learn the secrets of the tantalizing botanical potions in those snappy little bottles. Join pro bartender Tamu Curtis, for this live virtual class where she’ll demystify the world of bitters and teach you how to use them like a mixology maestro.

  • Class starts with unboxing your custom bitters kit (see Comes with the class, below) as Tamu introduces you to the history and application of bitters.
  • You’ll build an old-fashioned using bitters selected by Tamu and learn why they’re considered the spice rack of the bartending world.
  • In the second half of class, you’ll have the freedom to chart your personal mixology map as you make your own custom rum daiquiris.
  • Class wraps up with an open discussion where you can share with your classmates and ask questions that will inform and inspire your journey further into bitters mixology.
Class length: 60 minutes.
Comes with the class: Developed with guidance from Sother Teague of the podcast The Speakeasy, our Better with Bitters Cocktail Experiment Kit includes sampler bottles of 12 different bitters (like honey lavender, grapefruit rosemary, and chocolate mole) and six small-batch cocktail syrups that will elevate your drinks to new heights of flavor.

Please note: Our expert mixology instructors create a bar vibe in their classes, with conversation that may include mild profanity and references to the fun of getting buzzed.

About

After moving from Los Angeles to Charlotte, North Carolina, Tamu Curtis immersed herself in the growing city's culinary and bar culture. Her career in the hospitality industry gave her the chance to meet bartenders who inspired her to host mixology events and classes, and eventually to open her own cocktail goods and lifestyle shop. Having taught more than 500 in-person and online classes, Tamu understands how mixology can seem mystifying to many beginners. "My goal is to make it more approachable to the at-home enthusiast," she says. "I enjoy seeing people have the same epiphany I had when it came to making cocktails."

In addition to the included Better with Bitters Cocktail Experiment Kit, you'll need a jigger, a bar spoon, a strainer, a shaker, and 4 rocks or cocktail glasses as well as the ingredients listed in the link below.
