Are looking for an idea to get your friends together? Or looking for something to do for a bachelorette, or holiday party? Why not have a tasting party. Put together a selection of your favorite wines, cheeses, or chocolates and invite your friends over to have a taste. The selections can be something you love, or something you’d love to try.
Offer 7 or 8 samples, and let the party goers discuss their favorites. Include little note pads for each guest so they can jot down notes about the aroma, appearance, and flavor of the selections. Make sure to include water and crackers between the tasting stations for guests to clean their pallets.
You don’t have to stick to one thing, you can combine a wine tasting, and cheese tasting, or wine and chocolate.
Tasting parties are great for indoor, or outdoor parties. You may want to switch from fragile stemware to a hardier glass if you’re doing your wine tasting on the deck.
You don’t have to stick to wine, cheese, or chocolate. Do a tasting of your favorite foods, or recipes. Just have fun with it!
