SUMMARY:BASIK LIVE: Chocolate & Whisky Perfect Pairings in Melbourne
DESCRIPTION:The mad chocolatier from the north returns this August to tantalise your senses and challenge your flavour conventions!\n  \nSome of you know Krsna Raj from BASIK\, but for those who have joined recently\, BASIK Chocolates is the final frontier in chocolate flavour exploration.

This year\, Krsna has outdone himself by incorporating his flavours into a new chocolate “snack bar” format for the upcoming SMWS tasting. \nKrsna will return to Melbourne alongside your local State Ambassador Alex Moores to host the Perfect Pairings tasting at the Hawthorn Arts Centre. Five unique Society single-cask drams (three whiskies\, an Armagnac\, and a Cognac) paired with five handmade chocolate “snack bars” from Krsna himself; this is it\, the ultimate chocolate and whisky pairing — the perfect pairings. Each ticket includes the five drams and five chocolate snack bars\, as well as canapés on arrival with a welcome dram — all enjoyed in the beautiful surrounds of the Hawthorn Arts Centre. \n  \nWhen? Saturday the 19th of August\, 2:00pm start.\nWhere? Hawthorn Arts Centre\, 360 Burwood Rd\, Hawthorn\, VIC\, 3122.\n  \nMembers are welcome to bring guests at member pricing\, non-members are also welcome to attend. \n  \nWe have members join The Society explicitly for the unparalleled chocolate and whisky pairing collaboration we do with Krsna of BASIK each year — this is an experience you do not want to miss! \n  \nPlease note that whilst dietary requirements will be taken into account for the lunch meal\, no substitutes can be made for the chocolate pairings.
