Fun Food and Drink Tasting experiences in Australia
Fun things to do in Australia
No matter whether you’re looking for things to do in Brisbane this weekend, or you’re on the hunt for Melbourne workshops to brighten your list of Mother's Day ideas, we have unique food and drink tasting experiences for you. Maybe your mum adores a glass of fine wine and would love nothing more than a wine tasting experience for you to enjoy together. Or perhaps you’ve been tasked with compiling hens party ideas for a bride-to-be. Either way, food and drinks tastings in Sydney, Perth and beyond are a fantastic way to while away a few hours.
Learn the ins and outs of wine production and enjoy a private winery tour and wine tasting experience on the Gold Coast. You’ll soon be tantalising your tastebuds and learning how to distinguish sweetness from acidity in your favourite tipple. What’s more, cheese and wine tastings make for a seriously sophisticated addition to any list of date ideas. Banish first date butterflies as you discover the difference between an earthy and a zesty wine or recommit to your partner via a romantic wine tasting at home.
Alternatively, benefit from food and drinks tastings in Melbourne’s CBD and discover why the city is described as the foodie haven of Australia. You’ll sample delicacies from different restaurants, satisfying both your sweet and savory palate and supporting small businesses as you go.
What to expect at food and drink tastings for beginners
Don’t worry if you’re new to food and drink tastings and are just beginning to stretch your foodie muscles – these experiences are designed for everyone. In fact, whether you’re headed to a whisky tasting, a rum tasting, or even a beer tasting, your friendly local guide will be an expert of their craft and as enthusiastic to share everything that they know as you’ll be to learn.
Whether you’re headed to food and drink tastings in Brisbane, Perth, or beyond, you’ll be surrounded by like-minded food and drink lovers, so make the most of the dining experience to socialise and soak up the knowledge of your fellow class goers and the leader of the tasting.
If you head to a wine tasting, expect to discover how to taste wine like a pro, as you develop your nose and flavour palate. If you’ve gone for a cheese tasting, be ready to sample some of the best cheese you’ve ever tasted, as well as learning all about how different types are created. The provider of your food and drink tastings will be a passionate advocate for whatever drink or food experience that you’ve chosen, so expect to leave with serious knowledge about the industry and a newfound love all of your own.
Don’t forget that food and drink tastings also make fantastic team building activities. Get your colleagues to activate their ‘out of office’ as you all reconnect and socialise in a welcoming space, enjoying a wine tasting experience or food tasting in each other’s company. You’ll soon find the stresses of the day melting away as you benefit from time spent away from a desk and in the company of good food and delicious drinks.
Unwind at home with food and drink tastings in Australia
If you’re looking for ways to spend time with friends and family who are spread across Australia, you’re in the right place. We’ve got plenty of online experiences for you to enjoy together – whether it’s a virtual wine tasting, online cheese and wine night, or even a streamed dining experience. Just because your nearest and dearest don’t live together in the same city, that doesn’t mean you can’t spend time making foodie memories in each other’s company.
Should you opt for a virtual wine and cheese tasting or an online scotch whiskey experience, you’ll be sent a kit full of all of the drink and food tasting materials and equipment that you need. All you have to do is choose a date that suits you and your virtual partner, and log in to class. You’ll be guided through the wine tasting or food experience by a teacher who will share their passion and knowledge with you, while you enjoy time online in the company of someone you love.
