Lagavulin 16 Year Single Malt Scotch
Just like Ron Swanson, you know Lagavulin by it's official name: "Mother's Milk." One of the most awarded and critically acclaimed Single Malts of all time, Lagavulin has been known for its slow distillation and pear-shaped pot stills since 1816. Sitting on the coast of Kidalton, "in the hollow by the mill" as it translates in Gaelic, Lagavulin is known for being less peaty than neighbors like Laphroaig — partly because it's aged in bourbon barrels, so it has more of that vanilla, honey, and fruit. Offered by Diageo and part of its Classic Malts lineup, the 16-year is Lagavulin's entry level bottle and a collector's favorite. Do like they do on the floor of the malting room every September and open this bottle while listening to some live music, gently dancing the night away and singing right along.
Nick and Nora Glasses with Gold Trim, Set of 6
You and bae are the masters of JOMO, because you know nights in are way better anyway — and so are the craft cocktails you whip up. Serve your latest creations in something less mainstream with these elegant and fresh glasses — a throwback to the Minners Classic design of the 1930s and 40s, complete with gold-banded rims — perfect for Old Cubans with aged rum or Pisco Sours. For the first round.
Iron Horse Vineyards 2014 Wedding Cuvée
Iron Horse Vineyards has that indie band cool with serious Sonoma street cred all bottled up into one incredible estate. They're located in the foggy and cool Green Valley of Sonoma making it picture perfect for sparkling grapes. The founders first fell in love with the property when they saw it in the pouring rain in 1976...just like The Notebook. Since then they've been turning out incredible juice and the 2014 Wedding Cuvée is their most romantic expression of that tireless effort. It's refreshingly delicious with a remarkably long finish. It's no wonder they're a critical darling to boot.
Domaine Serene 2014 Evenstad Reserve Pinot Noir
When you talk about Oregon Pinot Noir the original belle of the ball is Domaine Serene. Founded by a Burgundy-obsessed couple in 1989, their love for Pinot trail-blazed an entire industry in the Williamette Valley. And, when we say they're a critical darling we mean they have some of the best street cred in the wine game. The Evenstad Reserve Pinot Noir is their flagship wine and is the standard by which all other Oregon Pinots should be measured. It's silky mouthfeel glides across the palate bringing with it notes of black currants, dark cherries and finishing with blueberry pie, just like that Willy Wonka magic.
Montagny Premier Cru 2015 Les Tourelles de la Crée
Owned by arguably the most iconic wine couple in Oregon, the Evenstads took their talents to Burgundy to purchase this amazing estate where they've proven themselves yet again. Château de la Crée produces a clean, pure expression of Burgundian terroir. This fresh Chardonnay smells of Meyer lemons, apricots and white peaches. It's perfect for a Spring evening or alongside a delicious flaky white fish cooked in lots of butter, as the French do.
Moscow Mule Mugs
Back in the 1950s, NYC bartenders created a hand-hammered copper glass meant to look like a still and snapped Polaroid photos of their customers drinking them — the original Insta-Famous Moscow Mule Mug. Not only does that warm glow of copper look great on any bar or bar cart — hell, any room of the house — but the design is also practical, keeping slushy cocktails cold the longest no matter how high the heat index. So when it's the face of Mars outside, find your chill with that classic cocktail of ginger beer, lime, and vodka or any trendy frose-of-the-moment you want to keep photo-perfect for your next selfie. Set of 2.
Leopold Coupe Glasses with Gold Trim, Set of 6
Anything more than a Champagne glass is a waste, or so they used to say. Channel that less-is-more Greatest Generation mindset with these classic gold-rimmed coupes, a throwback to Old Havana at a time when the time capsule of Cuba has been reopened for adventure. Mix up a batch of Champagne or aged rum cocktails and toast to your travel bucket list.
Fusion Infinity Champagne Flutes (Set of 4)
Champagne in the membrane, always and forever. Just toss that ham in the frying pan, like spam — your besties don't care what you're cooking as long as there's QT on the menu. Have the whole squad over any night of the week because these guys are break-resistant!
