Original Taste


Members of Executive Council 70 bring more than 35 years of experience hosting the Valley's premiere food & wine taste event to the Scottsdale Waterfront. Combining more than 40 of the Valley's best restaurants, 70 wines from across the world, live entertainment and a scene you will not want to miss, this is not your average taste. This is THE ORIGINAL TASTE.

Proceeds from Original Taste benefit Executive Council Charities to fund critical youth programs at organizations like Phoenix Children’s Hospital, Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale, Ryan House, Foundation for Blind Children, Ronald McDonald House Charities, Jewish Family & Children’s Service, Sojourner Center, New Pathways for Youth, UMOM New Day Centers and many more.
