Tamworth Distilling’s test kitchen serves as a hub for experiments and innovations that fuel creativity. Many of the ingredients used are sourced from local farms or their own backyard botanical gardens. In 1988, the Black Tie began with a mission to create unique events centered around remarkably good food. Twenty-five years later they have established a reputation as Maine’s premiere caterer and are recognized for creativity, cuisine and outstanding execution.
A list of ingredients for the class will be emailed after registration, as will a Zoom link for the class. You will purchase your ingredients for the class, though some ingredients will be supplied by Patch Farm in the kits. Those who want to go for a ride or are taking the class and live near Tamworth Distilling in Tamworth, New Hampshire, and/or Union Kitchen in Portland can order online and visit them for curbside pickups.
