Frequently asked questions
- Types of events
Walk-around Tasting: Tastings showcasing several producers from a same region, country, or product category. Each event allows clients to discover and enhance their knowledge by talking with the producers and tasting their products paired with bites, all in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Gourmet Dinners: These evenings allow SAQ Inspire participants to taste, in the presence of a featured producer, selected products paired with the dishes of a meal served in a flagship restaurant of the region.
Grand Dinners: High-end evenings showcasing several producers from a same region, country, or product category. Each of these evenings allows customers to have a unique experience depending on the type of products featured and to have exclusive contact with the producers. These evenings typically begin with a cocktail, followed by a gourmet meal perfectly paired with the presented products.
Virtual Tasting: Born during the pandemic, virtual tastings allow customers from all over Quebec to enjoy tastings in the comfort of their homes, with family or friends. These events are sold as box sets on SAQ.COM. The videos are available on the SAQ YouTube page (@lasaq) in the SAQ Inspire Events playlist.
Festive Aperitif: A festive aperitif is a convivial tasting event where guests are invited to discover a selection of featured products in a festive and relaxed atmosphere. The producers present contribute to the success of the evening by offering participants the chance to taste products and engage in unique and exclusive brand experiences. The event is accompanied by bites paired with the featured products.
