Thirsty Thursday’s are back!
Our Wine Tube Map taste sensations allow you to travel a section of our WTM sampling food and wine combinations at each station. This is not your normal wine tasting. Instead you get to navigate and explore a selection of wines in a relaxed and informal way, as you chat and sniff, swirl and swallow!
Each station on the tube map has a pair of wines which will be matched to a mini meal – a bite size sample of the kind of food that works well with the wines, in the past we’ve had a mini roast lamb, gravy and mash, mini fish and chips and mini tortellini. You’ll be amazed at how much of a difference having the food makes to the experience, not least because you don’t get hungry!
Over the summer Thirsty Thursday’s are happening monthly beginning with the 26th July. We’ll release the details the week before but each will cover a range of wines so there’s always something for everyone.
Places are limited so book here for
26th July – buckets and spades away!
Our summer special Thirsty Thursday will bring some sunshine to your world regardless of the weather. We’ll be tasting white, red, pink and fizz all perfect for picnics, long weekend lunches and that general holiday buzz. The food will be a selection of suitably summery accompaniments.
30th August – festival madness
Our festival special Thirsty Thursday will bring some festival madness to the wine selections, Each pair of wines will have a ‘festival theme’ which means we’ll be tasting the sophisticated classics inspired by the International Festival against some wildcards inspired by the Fringe. We’ll be creating some equally fuzion-esque food to set the wine off.
27th September – Indian summer (another look at spicy food and wines)
Our Indian Summer special Thirsty Thursday will bring some warmth to the late summer however it turns out! We’ll be taking some interesting and spicy foods inspired by the cuisines of India, Asia and China and matching them to a selection of red, white, rose and bubbles. It will be a taste sensation!
All tickets are £25 and include food and wine.
Thirsty Thursday’s are held at the cute but perfectly formed Bon Vivant’s Companion in the heart of Edinburgh. Open 10 – 10 and replete with everything you could possibly wish to drink from craft beers, spirits to make every cocktail shaker happy and a great selection of wines.
