The Finer Things in Life

Aperitifs to Digestives

Just as the Food seminar celebrates fine foods, this seminar toasts fine beverages and mixology.

Famous mixologist Tad Carducci, along with local mixologists, Cecil Witt & Nicole Garcia, locally famous mixologist, will show you the cutting edge of the cocktail community, creating world class cocktails for your enjoyment.

Kelly Richardson from Domaine Select Wine Estates will regale you with the trial and tribulations of the spirits world from the days of prohibition to the current cocktail revolution.

If you enjoy the popular TV series madman then be sure to sign up for this.


Tad Carducci is a lifelong bartender, award-winning mixologist and general bon vivant, with over twenty years experience in the hospitality industry. He is one half of the dynamic duo known as the Tippling Bros., a New York based beverage consultancy dedicated to "spirituous advisement and raising of the bar". He has won several major national cocktail competitions and has judged, organized or emceed a few as well. In addition to consulting, Mr. Carducci is a partner in the Mercadito Restaurant group, with outposts in New York, Chicago and Miami.

His work has been featured in Food and Wine Magazine, NY Times, NY Post, Miami Herald, Chicago Sun-Times, Imbibe Magazine, Vogue, W Magazine, TimeOut, Travel and Leisure, Cheers!, Sante, Food Arts, Conde Nast, Skiing, Mr. Boston and many other national publications, as well as on NBC’s the Today Show, sirius radio, CW 11 morning news, CNBC and other media. He has contributed articles to Cheers! Magazine, Sante Magazine and theBoozehound.com. Tad is very proud to be a top-level graduate of the inaugural Beverage Alcohol Resource course and has earned certificates from both the Court of Master Sommeliers and the Wine and Spirits Education Trust. He is honored to be a member of the BarSmarts national training team, a charter member of the New York Chapter of the u.s.b.g. and, most recently, to have been chosen as a judge for the Ultimate Beverage Challenge.

Tad lives in a little bungalow in the Garden State with his wife Joanne and son leo, as well as a couple of canines. He is convinced that he hung out with Ernest Hemingway in his last go round, and if he had it to do over again, would be a jazz crooner or professional lobsterman. He’s addicted to hot dogs and the Discovery Channel, plays guitar very badly and drives way too fast.
