"Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine." No doubt, NYC native Humphrey Bogart himself would approve of this proudly independent, handcrafted gin made right in the Boroughs. Founders Emil Jättne and Joe Santos set out to make a high-quality small-batch American gin by hand - literally, they hand-crack the juniper berries and hand-cut the citrus slices for distilling. Perfect for sipping while you're waiting on your special someone to finish getting ready for summer cocktails at the Boat Basin or Taxi Beach, to mix up into a pitcher of Sea Breezes to share with a piano bar's worth of friends at home, or to share along with its maker story on 4th of July.
When the humidity is so thick and oppressive you could cut it with a knife, the best way to cool down is with a batch of Aperol Spritz - like jumping straight into the cold waters of a fountain on a piazza. With its bright, gentle, bitter-sweet taste of orange and rhubarb, the classic and lively Italian aperitif with the secret recipe is a favorite all across Italy on hot summer afternoons and at garden parties, a cherished ritual of mixing with prosecco and soda and Aperol in the biggest balloon of a wine glass you can find. Modern bartenders have taken to serving Aperol year-round, too, by mixing it into winter cocktails like Hot Toddies or spiced aged-rum ciders or mixing it into spring refreshers like Pimm's Cups and champagne or gin punches.
You've got roots and wings, baby: you love celebrating the past but always have one eye on the future. An homage to the original rye whiskey cocktail created on Bourbon Street in New Orleans back in 1838 — the classic Sazerac (made with absinthe and bitters) — this 6-year straight rye fittingly comes from America's oldest and most award-winning distillery, Buffalo Trace. As the longest continuously operating distillery in the US — they didn't even have to shut down for Prohibition — this is truly a bottle for any well-stocked bar that wants to laissez les bon temps rouler.
Weird and wonderful things happen when you enjoy a good Mezcal with friends and spirit animals, from weddings in Marfa to urban vision quests.

Sub it into your favorite tequila cocktails, like you would replace chili peppers with chipotle when you want more umami in a favorite dish, or share a finger or two over ice to help your nearest and dearest tune in to Mezcal's magical powers.

The instantly recognizable square bottle makes for a sophisticated and stylish gift, too!
Your ragtag crew of misfits manages to hide their mischievous ways in plain sight, like the most infamous rum-running flotillas, and you love them the more for it. This small-batch rum is your new go-to sipping spirit.

Crafted in the Dominican Republic from raw sugarcane and fully aged for 23 years in the barrel, this aged rum is as complex as it is caramelized. Pour a few fingers over ice with a splash of freshly squeezed fruit juice and let the shenanigans commence.

As bright red and oozing with sex appeal as the pout of a bombshell actress, Campari is the most iconically Italian cocktail on the market for more than 150 years.

Blend up a pitcher of Negronis, Campari and Sodas, or Jasmines and put on a Fellini marathon.
