Noel Patterson, Miraval’s resident beekeeper, believes easy. Because our brain is so intricately involved in how we think and feel, it makes sense that when fully taste the honey, you must use all five of the body’s senses. Also like wine, each honey has its own terroir that reflects the environment of the hive it comes from. Join Noel on this journey of the senses as you taste your way through a variety of local honeys and discuss the notes and flavors you experience along the way. 60 MIN|$65
Forget what you think you know about wine tasting. Wines capture a sense of the places they are grown in a uniquely expressive and vibrant way.
