Herbal Alchemy: A Guided Tasting of Flavor, Memory, and Ritual
What if flavor could hold a story?
Join Herbal Alchemy founder and storyteller, Joshua Magee, for an intimate, 2-hour guided tasting where syrup becomes a doorway into memory, imagination, and ritual.
This gathering is seated and guided. We will move slowly through the complete seasonal cycle: four syrups, four atmospheres, four thresholds. Along the way, you will be invited to notice what rises in the body as you taste, and to name it with as much softness or simplicity as you want. Sharing is always optional.
There is no alcohol in this experience. Mocktails will be provided.
What to expect
A guided tasting flight of 4 seasonal syrups (the complete cycle)
Story excerpts from the Celestial Grove world, paired to each syrup
Gentle reflection prompts and optional story sharing
A short mid-gathering break
A moment at the end to purchase bottles, ask practical questions about use, and continue the conversation
Who this is for
People curious about flavor beyond sweetness
Artists, writers, and storytellers (or anyone who misses that part of themselves)
Those who want a grounded, intimate gathering with meaning and texture
Allergens + dietary needs
If you have allergies, sensitivities, or dietary restrictions, please contact the organizer before the gathering so we can confirm what will be served.
Come ready to taste slowly, listen deeply, and leave with a favorite you can bring home.
