Fungi Uncovered: An Educational Tasting with Wine
Thursday April 16 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Discover the fascinating world of mushrooms and fungi in this unique educational tasting experience. Join NYK Beverage Educator Sandy Waters for a deep dive exploration of these remarkable organisms. You’ll learn about the ecological roles fungi play in our ecosystems, discover the incredible diversity of edible varieties, and explore the complex flavor profiles that make mushrooms such prized culinary ingredients — from their earthy, umami-rich characteristics to the subtle nuances that distinguish one species from another.
Throughout the evening, you’ll have the opportunity to taste and experience these lessons firsthand through a mushroom-focused nosh plate crafted by NYK Resident Chef Pamela Cecere. To complement your fungi education, Sandy will guide you through a flight of four Finger Lakes wines, demonstrating how thoughtfully selected pairings can enhance and illuminate the distinctive qualities of different mushrooms.
Leave with a deeper appreciation for fungi—both in nature and on your plate—and new knowledge you can bring to your own kitchen and table.
