Chocolate, Mezcal, Tequila, and You — 3/1/25 Live Event
It's been a long, cold winter, and we're just starting to emerge. And what better way to brush off the cold with a tasting of gourmet chocolate and premium agave spirits (Mezcal and Tequila)?
Join us for “Chocolate, Mezcal, Tequila and You,” a tasting of four vegan truffles and four premium spirits that show indulgence doesn't have to come with consequences.
