Salt & Spice — Summer Fruit Tasting
Summer fruit is already pretty great on its own. Salt makes it extraordinary.
Join A Dash Of for an eye-opening afternoon tasting where we explore how finishing salts — and those with a little heat — transform the fruits of the season into something you'll want to talk. We're talking stone fruits, citrus, melon, berries, and the salts that make them pop: flaky, mineral-rich, and yes, spiced.

Umami Hour — Salt, Tomatoes & the Fifth Flavor
Umami is the flavor you feel. And nothing delivers it quite like a peak-season tomato finished with the right salt.
At this tasting, we're going deep on umami — what it is, where it lives, and how salt unlocks it. We'll taste our way through a curated lineup of artisan salts alongside late-summer tomatoes, exploring how mineral content, texture, and terroir can change what lands on your palate.
