Pricing

$129 per person for 5 – 30 guests · volume pricing from guest 31: as low as $109 for 50+.

Includes kits, U.S. shipping, chef, event planner, host and gratuity.

One price: chef, event planner, host, kits shipped to every guest, gratuities, service — plus tax; rush dates and international delivery are quoted separately. No platform fee.

5 – 30 guests $129/pp
31 – 50 guests $119/pp
50+ guests $109/pp

Volume rates apply to each guest above the threshold — the first 30 guests are always at the 5 – 30 rate, so a bigger group never pays less than a smaller one.

Process and timeline

From the moment you book to the moment the chef says hello.

  1. When you book

    Hold your date

    A $250 deposit reserves the date and comes off the total in full. Dates 2 weeks out book instantly; sooner than that, ask and we can often expedite.

  2. Within a day

    Your event planner gets in touch

    Every event gets a dedicated planner, at no cost. They shape it around your team — the menu, the timings, dietary needs, and the parts that make it yours.

    • Free customization of the menu and the run of show
    • Free engagement games to open or close the session
    • Extra cheers, toasts and shout-outs for birthdays, wins and farewells
    • Dietary adjustments for anyone who needs them
  3. Once you have booked

    Choose the flight

    Wine, caviar or chocolate, classic selections through the more unusual. Your planner steers you by group size, budget and what your team already enjoys — premium flights cost more because what is in them does.

  4. As soon as you like

    Collect guest addresses

    We send every guest a short form to fill in themselves, so you never chase anyone for a home address. Prefer to handle it yourself? Send us the list instead.

  5. 14 days before

    Addresses in

    That is the deadline for free standard shipping anywhere in the US. International delivery is available to most countries at additional cost, and those addresses are due earlier.

  6. A few days before

    The selections arrive at every door

    Individually packaged per guest and shipped insured, with the pairings that go alongside them.

  7. Event day

    A guided tasting, live

    A sommelier, master chocolatier or caviar expert works through the flight one at a time — what you are tasting, what to look for, and what it goes with.

Agenda / Run of show

A breakdown of how the 60 min runs.

  1. 0:00 – 0:07

    Welcome & what's in front of you

    Meet your host and lay out the tasting in the order you'll work through it.

  2. 0:07 – 0:19

    How to taste

    Look, smell, taste — the vocabulary that makes the differences obvious.

  3. 0:19 – 0:43

    The flight

    Work through each one together, comparing notes as a group.

  4. 0:43 – 0:53

    Pairings & favorites

    What to eat and drink alongside, and a vote on the room's favorite.

  5. 0:53 – 1:00

    Q&A & group photo

    Where to buy them, how to store them, and the team photo.

What guests said about this experience

Verified guest

I'd have told you chocolate is chocolate. Tasting the European ones against the American ones in one sitting killed that idea in about ten minutes. One side creamy enough to coat your mouth, the other sweet in a way I recognized from childhood without ever once thinking about why. The texture gap was the part I didn't see coming.

Riley

Verified guest

Host Emily kept handing us the why behind what we were tasting, not just the what, and that's the part that stuck. I couldn't repeat a single tasting note back to you, but I can explain to my brother why the two sides taste so different.

Anika

Verified guest

I set this up for nine people and the hour really is an hour, start to finish. The flip side: an hour goes fast when everyone wants to say what they're tasting, and we were still arguing about the last pair when it wrapped. Smaller group next time.

Reese

Verified guest

I buy the European stuff now and my grocery bill has noticed.
