A new kind of night out is taking shape in Scottsdale, and it’s designed for those who appreciate the finer details in both food and drink. Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale has introduced Pours & Plates, an intimate tasting series hosted inside its signature restaurant, Hearth ’61.
The experience begins with a reserved seat at the bar, where guests are treated to a three-course dinner, each dish paired with a complementary cocktail. From there, the evening unfolds into something more interactive. Guests are invited to explore a series of spirit stations, where exclusive pours and expert insights bring each featured theme to life.

What sets Pours & Plates apart is its ever-evolving concept. Each month highlights a different spirit or theme, ensuring that no two evenings feel the same. It’s an approach that blends education with indulgence, offering guests the chance to deepen their appreciation for everything from bourbon to tequila in a setting that feels both elevated and approachable.
The series kicked off with a bourbon-focused evening on March 26, setting the tone for what’s to come. Upcoming events include Rye & Rum on April 23 and Tequila on May 21, each promising its own distinct flavor profile and curated experience.

At $99 per person, plus tax and gratuity, Pours & Plates offers a unique blend of culinary craftsmanship and spirited discovery. Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or simply looking for a fresh way to spend an evening out, this new series at Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale delivers a memorable way to sip, savor, and explore.
