Wow, this sounds like an amazing event! I love how they’re incorporating local ingredients like Thai honey. Anyone else excited about this?
Absolutely! The use of local ingredients really adds an authentic touch. I can’t wait to see what unique flavors they come up with!
Same here! It’s cool to see events that highlight local culture and flavors.
Seems like just another elitist event catering to those with deep pockets. Will there be anything for us common folk?
Yeah, I’ve noticed these events are often out of reach for regular folks. Would be nice to see more accessible workshops.
Exactly! I’m sure the cocktails are amazing, but it feels exclusive, not inclusive.
Has anyone attended a masterclass like this before? Are they worth it?
I attended one at a different hotel, and it was totally worth it! Got to learn a lot and meet new people.
That’s awesome to hear! I might consider giving this a go then. Thanks for the insight!
Sounds like an unforgettable night. I just wish they included a history segment about Thai cocktails.
Thanchanok Rinthorn is incredible! I’ve followed her work for a while now, and I’m thrilled she’s part of this event.
I’ve heard great things about her too. Her knowledge of rum seems unmatched!
Exactly! Her expertise really elevates any event she participates in. Lucky attendees!
A bit pricey for just a few hours of cocktail tasting… Anyone know if it’ll be livestreamed or shared online after?
Finally, an event to look forward to! It’s about time Bangkok hosts something upscale like this! Can’t wait!
Upscale, sure. But at what cost? Accessible events would be more appreciated.
Maybe both types of events have their place? It’s good for tourism too!
I hope they’re taking the environmental impact into account. Events like these generate so much waste…
That’s a good point. Maybe they have eco-friendly practices in place? It would be nice to know.
The Chao Phraya River backdrop is what really sells it for me. It’s such a beautiful location!
Yes, the view alone might just justify the expense. Imagine sipping cocktails with that view!
Every event should include a segment about the history of cocktails in Thailand. It’s fascinating how local culture influences global trends.
That’s a great idea! Cultural context always makes these experiences more enriching.
Shouldn’t they have non-alcoholic options? Not everyone drinks.
It’s events like these that put Bangkok on the international map! Cheers to more like this in the future.
Absolutely, Larry! It’s great promotion for our city.
I’m personally interested in how they balance the flavors of diverse honeys. That’s quite a challenge!
Can someone get me a ticket to this event? This is the kind of high-end escapade I need in my life right now!
Haha, same here! Let’s just hope they don’t sell out too quickly.
Hope they include locally sourced, sustainable products. That would make this event even more appealing.
Exactly! Supporting local agriculture while reducing the carbon footprint is a win-win.
What about those of us who don’t drink? Events like this aren’t very inclusive for us!
That’s a valid point, maybe they could offer alternative options for non-drinkers?
