Zoedokey Posted January 25, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I see on some past Fun Times mention of a martini tasting or wine tasting. It says it is offered at a special price. How can I find out the price before i go? Is it worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FauxPas75 Posted January 25, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2012 If I remember right its $19 for a sampling of 5 or 6 mini martini's. Seemed a decent deal, but I didn't get a chance to do it on our last cruise. I'm guessing it would be 5 or 6 shots worth of martini, so if you figure 4 bucks per shot it's not a horrible deal...if it's more than a shot, and I'd guess that it probably is, then it's a better bargain.

debster11 Posted January 25, 2012 #4 Share Posted January 25, 2012 What's a marini? :p:p I had this and I believe it was $17 and you could choose 4 different kinds. They were supposed to be mini's but their mini's were pretty big. They were a good deal in my opinion. I loved the Spicey Chipoltle. Mmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PearlOnyx Posted January 25, 2012 #7 Share Posted January 25, 2012 When we went it was $15, and you got either 5 or 6 "mini's". They were good size and well worth the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mizLORInj Posted January 25, 2012 #12 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I think it was $15 or so for 4 small martinis. You get a booklet with the dozen or so options from which to choose. Ditto on chipotle! It was great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinJenF Posted January 26, 2012 #15 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Here are my 4 Martinis from the Martini tasting!! They were delicious and totally worth it. The Melon one was my favorite- didn't taste like a regular melon martini- it tasted just like a watermelon!! Mmmmmmm It was $17 and I would do it again.....and again to try all of them :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkrchkr Posted January 26, 2012 #19 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Wine tasting is 15.00 pp.. they offer 5 wines to taste.. usually 2 white and 3 reds.. I suggest you sign up for this as soon as you can ..Most of the time they will put it on your S&s card after you are out to sea so you don't pay taxes..You get a few options for paring with the wine and times with a sommalier.. As a level 2 wines expert( one level below the sommalier).. I would recommend this for anyone..go in with an open mind and a palette that wants to experience new tastes..I am going on the Breeze and will be signing up for the wine tasting.. I was able to taste a $800.00 bottle of Boujolias Nouveax.. which was amazing..and the price was shocking..but well worth it.. Cheers /Salut' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3 MO sisters Posted January 26, 2012 #20 Share Posted January 26, 2012 The martini tasting is $19.55 with the tip. Sis and I shared them without a problem. We also loved the melon crush. Berry melody was my least favorite. Mangotini was good. Jack julep was strong. You get a charm shaped like a martini glass with Carnival below it.

mrsbean1990 Posted January 26, 2012 #23 Share Posted January 26, 2012 The martini tasting was $17 on Magic a couple of weeks ago, but none of the "flavors" listed appealed to me. So, instead, I spent $30+ on three different kinds of chocolate martinis that I enjoyed very, very much. The first one, the waitress in the piano bar substituted for a chocolate martini...she said it was like tiramisu. It was delicious. The second one, she said was like milk and cookies. Also delicious. The third one was a clear chocolate martini, and it was STRONG. And then I had to stop. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are in mini glasses but filled to the brim. I was quite tipsy after finishing them but it was meat to try them. Will definitely be doing it again in April.

trosmiles2u Posted January 26, 2012 #25 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I can't wait for this on the Dream in June 2012!! I have fallen in love with the raspberry martinis at the cheesecake factory! Luckily for our budget my husband has mastered these so I can have them at home!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
