About Matt Sinagoga

Matt's mixology journey began during Covid-19. After months of isolation, Matt craved a classic Whisky Sour. He purchased his first shaker set, watched instructional videos online, and that was the spark that ignited his passion. Now, he enthusiastically share these incredible recipes through virtual and private classes. He is grateful for the opportunity to bring people together through the art of a finely-crafted drink. Most evenings, you'll find him enjoying a whisky cocktail or savoring a craft beer.
