Join GiraMondo for a special class and tasting on honey as we focus our attention on food and drinks other than wines for luncheon / afternoon events.

We will start our event with a quick game of honey facts and trivia. (the winner will take home a special jar of honey)

• Then, We will present a number of interesting facts about honeys, including
• The different types of honeys and classifications
• How it is made and what happens to process it (honey bees!)
• The health benefits of honey in general
• How different plants affect the taste, color, texture, and thickness

We will taste 8 different honeys representing a wide range of flowers, trees and plants and from different parts of the US and World.

Our honey tasting will be accompanied by a selection of bit-size food items made with honey, including:

• Gourmet baguettes and crackers to taste the honey
• Polenta with gorgonzola and honey
• Honey roasted ham
• Baklava
