Our goal was to create a map that featured food and wine regions we could work with. When Russia is one of the biggest areas on the map, we had the potential of learning a lot of new Russian recipes and not as many from Italy or Thailand. Therefore continents were sized to fit our needs and countries and cities known for food or wine were labeled. If our dice gets close to those places we have a clearer reference point to decide on the region of the spirits or the food for the next tasting.
Starting January 2012 we roll 2d6 on a world map to determine the alcohol and regional theme of the monthly tasting. Everyone is asked to brink the chosen beverage and a food pairing.
