(Seattle, WA.) On Wednesday, March 26th, Mezzanotte will kick off Bittersweet Alchemy– a one-of-a-kind dinner experience that couples amaro producers with the Northern Italian cuisine of Chef Johnny Sullivan. The inaugural dinner will take place in the Garden Cathedral featuring Joey and Gillian Diedrick, owners, and producers at SennzaFinne. The evening will feature a four-course tasting menu with cocktail pairings and pours highlighting the distinct flavors. The event begins with a meet and greet at 5:30 PM, followed by dinner at 6 PM. Tickets are $120 per person. Reservations available here.
The husband-and-wife team fell head over heels for each other and the Italian bitter liqueur while traveling through Italy when they got engaged in 2013. They carried their shared love for Italian aperitivo culture back to the various bars they tended in Seattle and established the business in 2019. In 2023, they built a production space and tasting room in Ballard for their amari that is inspired by the seasons of the Pacific Northwest.
