NEW CLASS ALERT! 🍷📖 W**e & Pintxos: A Toast to The Sun Also Rises at 100 on Wednesday, December 2nd!

Pull up a chair and raise a glass to a literary milestone. Ernest Hemingway published The Sun Also Rises on October 22, 1926 — the novel that captured the restless, glamorous, hard-drinking spirit of the “Lost Generation.” A century later, it’s still one of the great books of American literature, and one of its best-loved characters is the food and w**e.

No reading required. You don’t need to have cracked the book to enjoy this evening. Follow Hemingway’s characters from the cafés of Paris to the sun-soaked tables of Spain, with five w**es and five small plates inspired by the journey. Expect something bubbly, something briny, a splash of sherry, and a pair of Spanish reds, each matched with a bite made to go with it.

Your hosts:
Anthony Velasquez, Professor of Creative Writing at Keuka College and W**e Educator at Forge Cellars, will pour the w**es and share the stories behind them. Chef Julian Plyter of Pintxo W**e Bar in Canandaigua will prepare the Spanish small plates and bring his expertise in Spanish food, w**e, and culture to the table.

As Hemingway’s own website puts it, food and drink were never mere background details for him. They reflected culture, place, and character. Come taste what he meant. Sign up: https://nykitchen.com/event/w**epintxos/

From field to glass, every detail tells a story. 🥃🌾

The New York Kitchen team had the incredible opportunity to visit Hillrock Estate Distillery in the Hudson Valley, and what an unforgettable experience it was!

A heartfelt thank you to Jeff, Alex, Tim, and the entire Hillrock team for their exceptional hospitality, generosity, and time spent sharing the passion behind their craft. We can’t wait to continue sharing the Hillrock story here in the Finger Lakes.

Hillrock’s commitment to sustainability and tradition is truly inspiring. From growing heirloom grains using natural, sustainable farming practices to harvesting each field separately to preserve its unique terroir, every step is intentional. Their historic on-site malt house, the first new distillery malt house built in the U.S. since before Prohibition, keeps the art of traditional floor malting alive, creating wh***eys with remarkable depth and character.

We left with a deeper appreciation for the people, the land, and the craftsmanship behind every bottle.

And we’re excited to share that new Hillrock wh***ey offerings are coming to the New York Kitchen Tasting Room! (more on that soon!)

A heartfelt thank you to Jeff, Alex, Tim, and the entire Hillrock team for their exceptional hospitality, generosity, and time spent sharing the passion behind their craft.

Cheers to great partnerships, exceptional spirits, and an unforgettable visit!

Join us on Sunday, November 8th for our next Producer Masterclass Series: Behind the Barrel – A Blind Wh***ey Tasting with Finger Lakes Distilling’s Brian McKenzie. 🥃

Join Brian, owner and founder of Finger Lakes Distilling, for an insider’s look at how wh***ey actually gets made, from grain to barrel to the glass in your hand. He’s been doing this since before “craft distillery” was a category, and he’s here to walk you through the real history and production methods behind the spirit.

Then things get fun: a blind tasting of 4 wh***eys, no labels, no hints, just your palate against the lineup. The group votes on a favorite, and here’s the twist: that winning wh***ey gets bottled up just for this class. A few weeks later, you’ll come back to New York Kitchen to pick up your own 375ml bottle of the wh***ey you chose, with the option to buy more if it becomes your new favorite.

Because no great class is complete without great bites, Chef Pam Cecere will delight with one of her signature nosh boxes to round out the experience perfectly.

Seats are limited. You won’t want to miss this one. Sign up: nykitchen.com/event/producer-masterclass-series-behind-the-barrel-a-blind-wh***ey-tasting-with-finger-lakes-distillings-brian-mckenzie/
