Hudson Manhattan Rye Whiskey: First in New York Since Prohibition by Tim Yu
Hudson Manhattan Rye Whiskey, by Tuthilltown Spirits, is the first rye whiskey legally made in New York since prohibition and is fast becoming the connoisseur's drink of choice. At 92 proof, the spirit has a slightly spicy, fruity taste, concocted to compliment sweet vermouth in the classic New York–born cocktail, The Manhattan.
Ground, cooked, fermented and double distilled in Gardiner, NY, the bottles are hand filled, capped, waxed and numbered one at a time in limited numbers.
You can expect their second batch in stores and bars around the New York region in June. For those of you not in the New York area, contact Tuthilltown Spirits to reserve your bottle or even a whole cask.

Absolut Machines: Absolut Quartet
Absolut Machines is Absolut's promotional initiative that explores where technology meets design in the form of two "machines." Last night we got to check out one, the Absolut Quartet, an interactive multi-instrumental robotic machine. It consists of a marimba played by rubber balls precisely shot from a robotic cannon, a series of spinning wineglasses dampened by robotic fingers and an array of percussive instruments....

Bblessing Home Absinthe Set
One of our favorite men's stores, Bblessing, just launched their brand-spanking new home line. These graphic absinthe spoons—the first pieces in the line—were designed by Surface to Air's Daniel Jackson in keeping with the store's interior, which was "very much inspired by my own abstraction of a fin de siècle Absinthe bar." For those unfamiliar with the absinthiana, the ritual of drinking the famed,...

La Botica Mezcal
Our friends from m ss ng p eces recently returned from making a video in Mexico City with bottles of a smoky, complex mezcal labeled "La Botica." Turns out La Botica is a small mezcaleria in the trendy Condesa section of the city that's rebranding the humble liquor for a new audience with beautifully-designed packaging and an artisinal approach. Since opening a couple years...

Cabana Cachaça
On the heels of the enduring Caiprinha craze, Cabana Cachaça is "double distilled" and is one of the latest brands to capitalize on the rising popularity of Brazil's national spirit in North America. Unlike conventional rum which is made from molasses, cachaça is the product of pure cane sugar and is an excellent ingredient in cocktails. It's the standard-bearer spirit in Brazil and popular...

Two New Mixers
Historically frowned upon as cheap imitations for those who can't mix their own, two new mixers help remove the stigma by making delicious concentrates using high-quality ingredients. Our first contender, Mixerz, comes to us from California's Napa Valley, the cradle of America's fine wine industry that in the 1980s broke the backs of the jugwine industry, elevating California wines to a world standard. Using...

The Roasting Plant
House-roasted coffee in Manhattan is a rarity due to the tiny square-footage of most coffee shops, but The Roasting Plant, a new spot in the Lower East Side with computer-controlled roasters, is taking it a step further. Opened last week, their roasting system is fully automated, programmed to roast each type of bean differently. When a customer orders, overhead pipes deliver freshly roasted beans...
