Join us for a captivating exploration of Amaro, the iconic Italian herbal liqueur, in a specially curated tasting experience. Over the course of two delightful hours, we will sample six distinct Amari, each offering a unique blend of botanicals, citrus, and spices at Aventino Cucina, a delicious Roman influenced Italian restaurant owned by Chef Michael Friedman.  Presented by the Bailliage of Greater Washington & the Metropolitan Bailliage DMV.

This exclusive event has been expertly curated promising a refined yet inviting journey into the world of Amaro. To enhance the tasting, a selection of perfectly paired passed hors d’oeuvres will be served, complementing the complex and intriguing flavors of these time-honored digestifs.

Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or new to this fascinating spirit, we invite you to sip, savor, and discover the depth and diversity of Amaro with fellow Chaine des Rôtisseurs members.

We look forward to toasting with you!

Discover the artistry of plant-based haute cuisine at Elizabeth’s on L, where innovation meets indulgence.

The evening begins with a sparkling wine reception featuring passed hors d’oeuvres, followed by a multi-course journey of extraordinarily creative, labor-intensive, and exquisitely delicious cuisine. Thoughtfully curated biodynamic wines will accompany the meal, enhancing the depth and harmony of each dish.
