The luxurious and unique charity event, Mezcal at Dusk, will feature guest bartender Steve Livigni doing up some specialty mezcal cocktails at 10 Pound.

If you happen to have $1,000 kicking around your bank account and no plans for tomorrow night,** Chase Foundation‘s intimate charity event “Mezcal at Dusk” happens to have eight tickets still up for grabs.** The 75-person capacity shindig will turn the Montage’s luxurious Macallan bar, £10 (10 Pound), into a mezcaleria for the evening.

Party host Fausto Zapata will be debuting his new mezcal, El Silencio and it’ll be the first time it’s ever poured. It has only just arrived from Mexico but is anticipated to arrive at in L.A. restaurants and bars by the end of the month.

Attendees will also be treated to food by Chef Ricardo Zarate (Mo-Chica and Picca) and dessert by Duff Goldman (Charm City Cakes West). But I’m really excited  about Steve Livigni and Pablo Moix doing up the evening’s special cocktails. Amazing they even have time to do this considering they’re in the midst of prepping for their new Marina del rey bar, Old Lightning, which is scheduled to open late next month.

Here’s what they’ll be serving up:

  • Mezcal, passion fruit, agave nectar, lemon & beer
  • Mezcal, sweet vermouth, St Germain and bitters
  • Mezcal, lime, cucumber and salt
  • Mezcal neat served  with a  “Tajin”  coated orange slice
