Local writer Randy Mosher has spent the better part of the last six years holed up working on a new book about the science and art of tasting. Its release time has finally come.

The new book is Your Tasting Brain: A Sensory Approach to Wine, Beer and Other Pleasures. It’s not a beer book, but covers every imaginable aspect of tasting, from physiology to psychology to chemistry. It also includes practical thoughts on how to make tasting more effective.

Please join us at The Map Room to help celebrate the release on Tuesday, June 2nd from [5 to 9 pm]. Randy will have books to sell and sign, and talk about flavor and the amazing ways our brains and bodies turn chemistry into emotions, meaning and action.
