"Were willing to bet that most people love gin; they just dont know it yet," says Jake Sawabini, founder and master distiller of Empire Spirits Project. With more than a decade of experience in fine dining, including tenure at the iconic WD-50 on Clinton Street in New York City, Sawabini wanted to bring the experimental attitude he learned in the kitchen into the wine and spirits arena. "While I love the classic London Dry Gin, there are probably enough people making it already," says Sawabini. And so the idea for Empire Spirits Project was born.Three years and hundreds of recipes later, Sawabini has finally perfected his own, unique breed of gin. Empire Spirits Projects mission is to show that there can be more to gin than just juniper; Sawabini executes on this idea by pairing different botanicals to create novel flavor profiles in his ESP Gins. ESP American Beauty Gin incorporates rose, cinnamon and ginger into its mix of botanicals, resulting in an outstandingly light and floral spirit. Traditional notes of juniper and coriander appear on the nose, which quickly transitions into striking notes of cinnamon sticks and ginger candy on the palate. The finish, with hints of rose petals and lemon, is delicate and long-lasting.ESP American Beauty Gin comes in a distinctive, matte black bottle that has been wax-sealed by hand.

Made exclusively from blue agave harvested from the Highlands region of Mexico, El Espoln Tequila is crafted at the San Nicolas Distillery by Master Distiller Cirilo Oropeza. The distillery is located among the agave plantations of Jaliscos rolling hillsides and has been the site of tequila production for over two centuries.The process begins when expert jimadors harvest the agave after they have been matured for nearly a decade. Then, the heart of the agave the pia is removed and cooked for approximately 22 hours (versus the industry average of 12 hours). Once the pia has been cooked, it is shredded, and the remaining agave pulp is fermented using a proprietary strain of yeast. During fermentation, Oropeza plays rock music within the distillery to inspire the agave. Then, he twice distills the wash through copper pot stills for approximately 5.5 hours (versus the industry standard of 3.5 hours).After distillation, El Espoln Tequila Aejo was laid to rest in new, American white oak barrels, where Master Distiller Cirilo Oropeza kept a watchful eye on his tequila (and waited patiently). Matured for ten months in new American oak barrels, and finished in deeply charred Wild Turkey bourbon barrels, this aejo is bottled at 80 proof, giving it a rich character. Espolon Tequila Anejo was a finalist at the 2015 Ultimate Spirits Challenge, and it also received a Gold medal at the 2015 San Francisco World Spirit Competition.Pick up your bottle today!

Excellia Aejo Tequila is made from 100 percent blue agave, which have been matured for eight to ten years before they are harvested by expert jimadors. The jimadors remove the long, sharp leaves of the agave, and prepare the hearts of the agave, or pias, for transport back to the distillery.At the distillery, the pias are cut into quarter-pieces by hand using a hatchet and placed into stone and brick ovens, where they are cooked for approximately 36 hours. The stone and brick ovens preserve the natural aromas of the agave, and enhance the sweet, round characteristics of its flavors. Once the pias have been cooked, they are shredded and the remaining agave juice is fermented in wooden washbacks using indigenous yeast for seven to ten days. Following fermentation, the agave juice is twice distilled in copper-pot stills.After distillation, the tequila is barrel aged in a combination of previously used Sauternes wine casks and Cognac barrels for 18 months. The Sauternes casks, which were previously used to produce only a single vintage, have young, robust flavors of dried fruits and sweet apricots. In addition, the Cognac casks, which were previously used to age a Grande Champagne Cognac for over two decades, have deep and subtle notes of oak and woody spices.Excellia Aejo Tequila benefits from the influence of three unique regions Jalisco, Sauternes and Cognac. The hot and dry region of Jalisco, along with its mineral-rich, red clay soil produces agave that are naturally sweet and soft. The Sauternes regions of France suffers from foggy mornings followed by sunny afternoons, which adds delicate notes of dried fruits and flowers to the wine produced in the region (these flavors are ultimately passed along to the tequila through the Sauternes casks). Finally, the Cognac region of France enjoys mild temperatures and chalky soils, which contribute notes of sweet, oaky spices to the barrels in which the tequila is ultimately matured.Excellias signature "X"logo is meant to represent a mathematical equation, and the product of multiplying different cultures and traditions into one tequila.

Corazon Tequila is part of theGemini Spirits and Wine Company, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary ofSazerac. Corazon Tequila utilizes ex-bourbon barrels from some of the most in-demand whiskey to explore the relationship between aged tequila and the whiskey that was initially used in that barrel.In May 2010, expert jimadors from the Corazon Distillery began harvesting agave from the rolling hillsides of Arandas, which is situated in the Jalisco region of Mexico. Rather than clear-cutting the fields from the outset, the jimadors employed scientific tools in order to analyze the precise sugar content of the 80 tons of agave plants in Arandas. Once the sugar content had been determined, the jimadors combined agave with a low sugar content (a low sugar content will produce a tequila with a drier, more mineral flavor profile) together with agave with a high sugar content (a high sugar content will produce a tequila with a sweeter and bolder flavor profile) in order to produce a unique blanco tequila.Once the tequila had been produced, it was fractionated and matured in three unique types of casks: casks that had been previously used to mature Buffalo Trace Bourbon, casks that had previously been used to mature George T. Stagg Bourbon and casks that had previously been used to mature Sazerac Rye. The collection,Expresiones del Corazon, is comprised of five releases:Buffalo Trace Reposado, George T. Stagg Anejo, Sazerac Rye Anejo, Old Rip Van Winkle Anejo, and Corazon Artisanal Edition Blanco. This Corazon Anejo Tequila aged 19 months in Thomas H.

The idea for the independent spirits brand Fair came about in 2009 when founder and former salesman at Ferrand Cognac Alexandre Koiransky decided he wanted to create quality spirits for globally-minded people who cared about sustainability. This starts with sourcing extraordinary natural ingredients from local communities all around the world, ranging from quinoa from the Altiplano plateau and sugar cane from Belize, to juniper berries from Uzbekistan and Mexican coffee, all organic.All these natural ingredients are then shipped to Cognac, France where some of the finest distillers and brewers in the world take care of production, employing their several generations of expertise and tradition. The entire process is done according to the 200 rules of the Fairtrade organization, but Fair goes beyond the call of duty when ethically sourcing their ingredients, always making sure that they stay true to their mantra of honesty and transparency. They have since released 5 spirits under the Fair brand, a coffee and a kumquat liqueur, a gin, a rum, and a vodka.Fair Quinoa Vodka is an award-winning, certified fair-trade, gluten-free, and vegan spirit. Its made with organic quinoa thats grown in the volcanic soil of the Altiplano plateau in the Andean mountains through a process that starts with brewing beer from the quinoa, before being distilled. This unique process is the result of a 2-year research project between the distillers in France and Andean farmers.Grab a bottle today!

Pronounced SOUL-vai, Solveig is a traditional Scandinavian womans name that combines the elements of sun (sol) and strength (veig) reflecting the ethereal lightness of the gins character. Although most gin is produced by distilling all botanicals at once in a single run, Solveig Gin is made by distilling each botanical individually to capture its best attributes. Distillations are then blended together to create the final spirit. Far North is committed to this more labor-intensive process as it results in a truly superior gin with greater depth and character. The gin itself has a nose of citrus, pine cones and lavender, which combine for a creamy entry onto the palate. The gin shows exceptional balance on the mid-palate, with added flavors of thyme and coriander, before finishing with rich, persistent notes of black olives and fresh grain.Far North Spirits Alander Spiced Rum, which takes its name from an idyllic chain of islands located in the northern Baltic, is made from a blend of Louisiana Turbinado and Florida Demerara sugar cane.

Hidden down a dark alley in a former chop shop, skilled men are quietly violating one of Evanstons founding principles: Prohibition. In the 19th century, Frances Elizabeth Willard was elected President of the Chicago Womans Christian Temperance Union and embarked on a decade-long crusade to prohibit alcohol in the United States. Willard worked tirelessly; as President of the WCTU, she traveled roughly 30,000 miles and gave an average of 400 lectures each year for an entire decade.As a result, Evanston remained a dry town for over 100 years. It wasnt until Paul Hletko, owner and master distiller at FEW Spirits, began lobbying the town that the antiquated laws were lifted. "Im the vice president of the PTA at my kids school and I coach their soccer and T-ball teams,"Hletko says. "People around town know me and what Im about, which is handy when youre looking to change 100 years of laws." Today, Hletko and his team of master distillers produce FEW Rye Whiskey and FEW Bourbon Whiskey in the heart of Evanston, Illinois.Like FEWs award winning rye, this release is made from a mash that uses corn, rye, and malted barley grown within 150 miles of the distillery. "The corn comes from a farmers co-op in Indiana and my barley and rye from farmers in Wisconsin," notes Hletko. After mashing and fermenting the grains using French wine yeast, Hletko distills the wash through his 1,500-liter Kothe copper-pot still.After distillation, the rye is aged in custom-made oak barrels from Minnesota. "The cooper I eventually chose to make our barrels won 24 out of 25 categories at a spirits competition I visited," Hletko says. "Im no math major, but thats the cooper I want to make our barrels." The #3 char on the barrels gives FEW Rye hints of allspice and peppercorn, which are followed by notes of dark caramel and cinnamon. In addition, the casks contribute slightly sweet hints of honey and vanilla, which are nicely balanced by a spicy finish that intensifies as it lingers. After aging the rye, Hletko and his team of distillers fill each bottle by hand, affixed with an artistic label inspired by the psychedelic rock group, the Flaming Lips. Music industry designer Justin Helton approached the folks at FEW about the partnership. A long-time Flaming Lips fan who has also done graphic design work for Ween, Phish, and the Black Keys among others, Helton wanted to create a special product dedicated to one of his favorite bands.Upon release, Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne remarked: Whiskey its such a volatile drink. Upon pouring a drink its like accepting that you may become a werewolf And really ... Who doesnt want to become a werewolf ??? Ha. Heres hoping this rye doesnt actually turn you into a werewolf, that might be fun for you but it would be decidedly terrifying for everyone else. Perhaps it will inspire in you some level of transcendence nonetheless.This is a limited release of 5,000 bottles. Get yours today!

Founded as a dry community, Evanston, Illinois was the birthplace of the Womens Temperance Movement and home to Frances Elizabeth Willard, an influential protagonist in the story of Prohibition. As the Temperance Movement approached a boiling point, abstinence slowly began to creep across the country and Willard and her league of temperance supporters turned Evanston into a stronghold.For over 100 years, Evanston remained a dry town. It wasnt until Paul Hletko, owner and master distiller at FEW Spirits, began lobbying the town that the antiquated laws were lifted. "Im the vice president of the PTA at my kids school and I coach their soccer and T-ball teams," Hletko says. "People around town know me and what Im about, which is handy when youre looking to change 100 years of laws."Today, hidden down a dark alley in a former chop shop, Hletko and his skilled team are producing another batch of FEW Spirits American Gin. The gin is crafted from a mash of corn, wheat and unmalted barley, which are infused with eleven unique botanicals, including juniper, citrus lemon and orange peel, Tahitian vanilla, cassia, grains-of-paradise and home-grown hops. As a result, the gin has a bold citrusy flavor profile, with notes of spicy ginger and earthy botanicals that complement a subtle hint of juniper.Once the botanicals have been infused, the gin is bottled at 80 proof. FEW American Gin earned the Silver Medal at the International Review of Spirits Competition in 2011, and the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2012.Pick up a bottle today!
