Day 1 | 12 Days of Christmas | Mustard Trio
Susan Wenzel • December 1, 2020
Mustard dates back thousands of years to the early Roman era and is considered to be the oldest known condiment still in use today. Little has changed in the original preparation as all contain mustard seeds (powdered, ground, cracked, crushed, or whole), a liquid such as vinegar or wine, and a seasoning or salt of some kind. As with anything we carry at bayleaf, the mustards (and we have many including the vinaigrette staple – Dijon) are of exceptional quality and far beyond basic yellow. For your shopping convenience, we have put together three of our newest and most flavorful mustards that are perfect for a cheese and charcuterie complement, a stacked sammie slather, or a mind-bending meat marinade.

Think beyond pretzels and wieners (although they are pretty spectacular on either) with this trio of taste all packed neatly in a yellow (of course!) bayleaf wine bag. Seattle based Mustard and Co.’s Honey Curry mustard starts with fresh ground, raw mustard seeds and pure, raw Pacific Northwest honey and adds in a kick of curry. California made Kitty Keller Black Truffle mustard blends the elegance of black truffles with a decadent Dijon base. And our new favorite find – Florida’s award winning Terrapin Ridge Farms Garlic Kraut mustard is so scrumptious a certain mustard-loving staff member was spotted eating it with a spoon.

Join us for a special seated tasting on Thursday, May 15 from 5–7 PM with Clarke Boehling of Rosenthal Wine Merchant While visiting trade accounts in the area, Clarke has carved out time to lead this intimate tasting—and we’re thrilled to host him. This is a rare chance to explore the Rosenthal portfolio through the eyes (and palate) of someone who knows it inside and out. Tickets here .

Fall Wine Extravaganza Join us for an afternoon of delicious wines! Unlike our tastings of the past, this will be more like what we call a "trade" tasting. Each rep will be stationed at a table with 4 of their wines - a mix of chilled whites/roses and reds. You are welcome to mingle, pose questions to the reps, bounce back and forth and taste at your own pace. We'll provide solo cups to encourage you to pace yourself and spit. We'll have staff passing bites of food to pair. We'll be joined by Eric, Jesse and Ken in the Coupeville Rec Hall. This will give us all plenty of room to spread out. There will be discounts offered, lots of conversations had and as much education as you would like. This is a standing, social tasting. Wine club members enjoy discounted ticket pricing as well as deeper discounts on orders at the event. Join one of our wine clubs before the event to take advantage of these extra discounts. You don't want to miss this one! A great opportunity to taste before you buy, restock your wine rack and choose a few special bottles for the upcoming holiday season. Saturday 29 October 3 - 5 Coupeville Rec Hall tickets are required Non-wine Club member Wine Club member
