‘Glassware that changes the experience: Discover the magic of taste with the right glass’
Imagine an elegant room filled with warm light, where wine glasses and beer glasses shine on the shelves, ready to reveal their secrets. It is here, at the heart of the gastronomic arts, that a journey into the world of wine and beer begins, where every shape, material and detail of glassware matters.
In the first workshop, participants are transported to the world of wine. Led by Tomasz Miszczak, an expert with many years of experience, they explore the secrets of glass selection, discovering how the form of glass affects the aroma and taste of their favourite beverages. Practical advice on how to care for glasses, and a presentation of innovative accessories that change the way wine is served, arouse the participants’ admiration and surprise them with their functionality. This unique experience teaches that wine service is not just a technique, but a true art.
During the second workshop, the focus shifts to beer. Here, in turn, participants learn about the world of tankards, pokals and glasses for lagers, porters or wheat beers. It is fascinating how appropriately selected glassware can emphasise not only the taste but also the visual presentation of beer. The knowledge imparted during the workshop inspires restaurant owners, pubs and home brewers to raise the standards of serving beer, which takes on a new dimension.
Both events are more than just workshops – they are an opportunity to exchange experiences, make contacts and deepen your knowledge,
