New Laugh and Learn tasting evening calendar 22/01/2021

The wine tastings are finally back!

They will be online only - as “real live” ones are still not permitted.

Spirits tastings were already possible online and have been quite successful, but for wine it has been a bit of a problem to organize: we couldn’t realistically ask you to open 6 bottles in one go, by yourself at home…

Well, here is what we came up with: you WILL open 6 bottles in one go by yourself at home…but with a new accessory, the “Guardavino” spray bottle. It prevents an opened bottle from oxidizing without impairing the taste or aroma of the wine. This spray bottle contains a naturally occurring gas which does not impact the environment or the user’s health. Each bottle holds up to 50 doses. You will thus have a chance to enjoy your 6 bottles for up to 4 weeks after opening!

So, for the Laugh & Learn wine-tastings we will sell a 6-pack of 75 cl wine bottles, and with your first order, a bottle of Guardavino will be included (price 19.50 €). The total cost of the wine box and the tasting is 120 €.

Like the previous spirit tastings, we will keep using Zoom. We will send you a link and password the day before the tasting. The wine and spirit packs will be available early February and can be collected up to one day before the tasting, but if you choose home delivery, keep in mind we’ll need a few days for shipment.

There will be no changes to the Laugh & Learn spirits tastings. The price is 30 € per pack of 6 x 3 cl samples of the spirits featured during the tasting.

All packs are available for purchase on our website (insert « laugh » in the search box) and can either be delivered (with a delivery fee) or picked up at the shop. You can also just order by email: mig@migsworldwines.be
