The Masters Tournament is inviting fans to bring the iconic flavors of Augusta National Golf Club right to their homes with the return of its "Taste of the Masters Hosting Kit" for 2025. For those unable to attend the tournament live from April 10-13, this initiative offers fans the opportunity to savor highly sought-after concession items from the comfort of their own space.
This year's hosts have elevated the experience by introducing the new "Azalea Kit," which includes the non-alcoholic Azalea cocktail mix, complete with souvenir cups, coasters, custom stirrers, and even a Masters-themed cocktail jigger and recipe card. The Azalea Kit is priced at $64.95, and it’s limited to two per customer.
Visitors to the Masters’ official website can order these kits, ensuring they have the perfect accompaniments for their Masters viewing parties. A promotional note from the Masters encourages fans to "Elevate your watch party with Taste of the Masters, delivering Augusta National Golf Club's timeless concessions to your door. Order now, so you can enjoy and serve your guests the ultimate Tournament viewing experience for the 2025 Masters, April 10-13." This speaks to the tradition and community spirit the tournament is known for.
For those seeking something more substantial, the "Classics Kit" is available for $99.95, intended to serve four to six people. It includes 24 ounces of pimento cheese, six packs of plain potato chips, six mini chocolate moon pies, and Master-branded accessories, making it ideal for small gatherings.
For larger groups, the "Large Hosting Kit" is offered at $184.95 and serves 12 to 14 guests. This impressive kit features 24 ounces each of pimento cheese, egg salad, and pork barbecue, along with snacks like regular and barbecue potato chips and cookies. Fans will also receive Master-branded cups, wax paper, and coasters, making the hosting experience seamless and festive.
Shipping for these kits is free, except for Alaska and Hawaii where $20 shipping charges apply. Customers can expect deliveries to occur between April 3 and April 12, just before the start of the tournament, ensuring the freshest experience. Notably, the Masters has made it clear these items cannot be shipped to P.O. Boxes.
Reflecting on the affordability of food at the Masters, the tournament has been renowned for maintaining reasonable price points over decades. For example, the Masters menu continues to highlight popular items such as the egg salad and pimento cheese sandwiches, both available at $1.50. According to the tournament's co-founder, Clifford Roberts, "We believe one of the reasons the Masters is popular with patrons of the game is because they can obtain good food and drink at reasonable prices."
Some of the other food options available include the Masters club sandwich for $3, and various other sandwiches priced similarly. The affordable prices have been part of the charm and appeal for attendees throughout the years. It is noted by former Masters chairman Billy Payne, who explained, "We want the experience to not only be the best but to be affordable."
This year’s enhancements to the Taste of the Masters program allow fans to recreate the unique flavor experience of attending the tournament, adding to the anticipation of the 2025 event. The Masters Tournament menu boasts over 30 items with prices ranging from just $1 to $6, and the online ordering system adds convenience to fans and expands accessibility for those who want to indulge from home.
For anyone gearing up for this legendary golfing event, ordering from the Taste of the Masters not only ensures quality food but also brings the atmosphere of Augusta National Golf Club directly to their homes. This is instrumental for those celebrating or tuning in for the tournament festivities.
So, as fans prepare for the upcoming event, they can look forward to classic tastes and fantastic memories shared around the table as they cheer on their favorite golfers. It’s another way the Masters Tournament is building community, one bite at a time.
