SPIRITS

Gin: Whether you prefer a simple gin and tonic, a bubbly French 75, or more modern creations like the bramble, gin is the foundation of some truly great cocktails. Without it, we wouldn’t have the martini, the Tom Collins, or the Negroni.


Whiskey: Whether you lean more toward an Old Fashioned or a fruitier classic like a Whiskey Sour, there is no doubt whiskey is the foundation of some truly great cocktails. Without it we wouldn’t have the Manhattan, the Boulevardier, the Rusty Nail, or the Rob Roy.

Vodka: Whether you prefer a classic Martini or Vodka Gimlet or a modern twist like the Cosmopolitan or Lemon Drop, vodka is the versatile spirit behind some of the world’s most beloved cocktails. Without it, we wouldn’t have the Moscow Mule, Bloody Mary, or Espresso Martini.

Tequila: Whether you prefer a classic Margarita or a Sunrise, tequila and mezcal are the foundations of some truly great cocktails. Without them, we wouldn’t have the Paloma, El Diablo, or Bloody Maria. From cocktail hour with a smoky Oaxaca Old Fashioned, to a lazy afternoon with a punchy Siesta, there's a recipe here to suit any mood. 

Spritz: From the classic Americano or Bicicletta, to a modern favorite like the Golden Gate spritz, a refreshing sip of an effervescent libation is one of life’s greatest pleasures. Whether you’re dreaming of a summertime staple like the Pimm’s spritz or an après ski fave like the Alpine spritz, there’s something for every palette.

Aperitif: Whether you’re in the mood for a classic Negroni, the herbal complexity of a Boulevardier, or the light elegance of a Kir Royale, aperitifs lay the foundation for countless timeless cocktails. Without them, we wouldn’t be sipping on classics like the Americano, Aperol Spritz, and French 75.
