About Esther Cohen
Life in Israel - 2008 to 2012
In 2008 I moved from Boston, where I grew up and went to university, to Israel, where my heart belonged. When I moved to Israel I was not sure what career I would pursue but in 2009, fate and determination landed me a position at Tishbi Winery in Zichron Yaakov. During my time at Tishbi Winery, I learned about the Israeli wine industry. I was fascinated by the robustness and beauty of the wineries so in late 2009, I founded My Israel Wine Tours, a company that still guides hundreds of people around the different wine regions of Israel.
Life back in Boston - 2012 to now
I met my husband in Israel and in 2012 we decided to move back to Boston to be close with family. I currently work at Northeastern University and we live in Natick, MA with our 2 children and dog. Savoring wine is now my hobby, and I want to share it with you!
Israeli Wine Tasting Experience
What better way to spend a night with friends than to learn about Israeli wine and enjoy a tasting of unique wines from Israel! If you have a fundraising event, young adult social get-together or holiday event, I would be happy to join you and educate your community about the wine regions in Israel, the art of tasting wine, what makes wine kosher and all your other questions about Israeli wine.

Esther was a real pleasure to work with on our Israeli wine tasting event. She was organized, flexible, and attentive to our needs, helping us choose wines that were both interesting and within our budget, and managing all aspects of the purchase and delivery. Her professionalism, cooperation, and warm manner made the experience smooth and enjoyable. We truly appreciated her adaptability and thoughtful approach. - Darren, Nantucket, MA
We really enjoyed Esther's wine tasting demo. Her presentation was informative and interesting. We especially appreciated how she combined her wine expertise, her knowledge of the different parts of Israel, and her personal experiences. She was friendly and easy to work with. The event was enjoyed by everyone! - Shayndel, Boston Chabad
