Rome 5-Spirit Tasting Masterclass at MIXOLOGY Academy with Food Pairings

About this experience

The Rome 5-Spirit Tasting Masterclass is a guided spirits education session held in Rome, run by MIXOLOGY Academy, a professional bartending school. The format is a structured small-group masterclass led by a trained instructor who covers appearance, aroma, taste, and finish across five premium spirits, each chosen to represent distinct styles and production methods. Food pairings are included alongside the spirits, giving the session a practical, sensory dimension that goes beyond a standard tasting flight. Participants work through each pour in sequence, comparing impressions with the group while the trainer explains how industry professionals approach evaluation. The five spirits are selected to highlight contrasting categories, aromas, and finishes, making the session useful whether you are new to spirits or already familiar with the basics. For visitors planning a broader itinerary, this masterclass sits alongside a wide range of things to do in Rome that suit an evening or afternoon slot. Booking covers the full guided session, all tasting materials, the five spirit pours, and the accompanying food pairings, with sessions running in small groups to keep the format interactive throughout.
