JYC Wine Tasting and Pairing

Wednesday, May 17, 2023 • 26 Iyyar 5783

6:30 PM – 9:30 PM

Indulge your senses with the unique flavors and aromas of kosher wines with Jewish Young Community at MJCBY for our first exclusive Wine Tasting and Pairing Class! 

Join us for a special tasting event featuring top-quality wines from a variety of prestigious wine regions, paired with delicious bites and expert guidance from our guest sommelier, Adam Carmer. Discover the rich history and culture behind each wine and immerse yourself in its vibrant world. Identify key components of wine and explore how to pair with the right food to make your next dinner a success!

Dr. Adam Carmer is an instructor in the School of Hospitality & Tourism Management. He received an MS Degree in Hotel Administration from UNLV and an Ed.D. from American College of Education. Knighted in 2014 in Belgium for his body of work focusing on education, Dr. Carmer thereby earned the title of Sir. Adam was honored as the 2013 teacher of the year in the William F. Harrah College of Hotel Administration at UNLV where he has spent the last 20 years building students knowledge, specifically in the area of alcoholic beverages. In the mid 1990’s Adam became Steve Wynn’s first Hotel Sommelier and Director of Restaurants.

Looking to add value to Las Vegas and the world he followed his entrepreneurial conscience and opened his own food and beverage establishments. After establishing the first craft beer bar in Las Vegas in 2002 with the Freakin Frog, Sir Adam went on to open the first whiskey-only bar in the USA, The Whiskey Attic. While operating these venues and continuing his research in alcoholic beverages he developed a number of philosophies and systems. In 2008, Sir Adam Carmer developed a new method of tasting alcoholic beverages. This new discovery of a more advanced hierarchy of sensory perception led to classes, seminars, speeches and a loyal following of people using this new technique. Officially named the Carmer Spirits Tasting Enhancement Method, it more commonly goes by the moniker of CSTEM. Currently Adam spends his time teaching, consulting, judging and writing about alcoholic beverages, sensory perception and philosophies that influence consumer behavior.

Who and what it feels like

  • Coming alone is normal. This is a community gathering, not presented as singles-only unless the listing explicitly says so.
  • Structure: Clearly facilitated.
  • Expected attendance is not stated unless organizers have confirmed a useful range.

Arrival and first connection

  • Use the published start time, venue, and organizer instructions. If an entrance, check-in point, or arrival window is missing, ask before traveling.
  • A first-event host can text before the event, meet near arrival, and make two introductions.
  • Contact the organizer if you may arrive late or need to leave early; timed reservations and religious portions can affect what is practical.

Jewish content and conversation

  • Format: Come with curiosity. The event listing should identify any material familiarity, politics, or Israel focus in advance.
  • Israel or politics is not assumed to be part of the program unless the listing clearly identifies it.
  • No one is expected to disclose or defend a personal identity or political position.

Cost, access, food, and privacy

  • Use the registration page for the exact price, what it includes, and the refund deadline.
  • Confidential financial assistance and Request an accommodation are available.
  • Ask the organizer about dietary needs, parking or transit, indoor/outdoor plans, and photography if the listing does not yet answer them.
