Inspired by a rich English distilling heritage and his wife's African roots, Johnny Neill crafted this London Dry Gin using a unique blend of botanicals. Neill comes from a famous family of UK distillers, and the eighth generation gin maker uses a 100-year-old copper pot still to create his spirits. This handcrafted dry gin uses some traditional botanicals and some that are less common like Florentine Iris root from Italy to sharpen the citrus notes along with African botanicals like Physalis fruit and extracts from the Baobab Tree which is known as the Tree of Life.

Dark and minimal with a superhero name, the German-made Defakto Vektor is a retro-futuristic marvel straight out of an alternative 1950 timeline. Powered by a Miyota 9015 automatic movement, the 39mm watch is the perfect size and its svelte 9.8mm height disappears under shirt sleeves. The black dial and red hands are enveloped by a sphered plexiglas dome for a true mid-century look. The case, which resides on a black cowhide strap, is brushed on the sides and polished on the top and back. And speaking of the back, the Vektor has a see-through case back to show off the movement inside.
The first year-round offering from Stone Brewing Richmond, Fear. Movie. Lions is all about location. The beer is not only Stone's first attempt at a New England style IPA — unfiltered with loads of citrus and tropical fruit notes minus the traditional hop bite — but is named using the what3words convention that encodes geographic coordinates into three dictionary words, pinpointing the location the IPA was conceived. Available in 16oz cans exclusively throughout the East Coast this summer.
The largest family-owned spirits company in the world, Bacardi is best known for its iconic white rum.

Hand-crafted from 100% blue agave grown in volcanic soil in the highlands of Jalisco, Tears of Llorona No. 3 Extra Añejo Tequila is one of the most complex spirits in the category.

The result in a refreshing rosé cider with an alcohol content of 6.9 percent that can satisfy the masses.

Once the second largest distillery in the state of Kentucky, Peerless Distilling was one of the many victims of Prohibition. A century later, the distillery was revived by 4th and 5th generation descendants of the original master distiller Henry Kraver. The first release to turn heads from the resurrected brand is a rye whiskey that is non-chill filtered and bottled at barrel strength with no water added. And despite being only two years old, the whiskey helped Peerless become the only craft distiller to crack Whiskey Advocate's Top 20 Whiskies of 2017.
During the 1700's in Britain, beer was often safer to drink than water. But to avoid constant impairment, the Brits brewed beer between 0.5 - 2.8% ABV. Inspired by that history, the Small Beer Brew Co. was founded. Their lager weighs in at only 2.1% ABV, but still has plenty of flavor and half the calories of a standard beer for a guilt-free option during a mid-week lunch or a lazy afternoon with family.

Based on a new aperitif from Brooklyn spirits company St. Agrestis, this bottled Negroni makes a classic cocktail even easier to consume. The cocktail is made using local Greenhook gin and sweet vermouth and is ready to drink right out of the bottled at an approachable 48 proof. Each bottle is 3.3 ounces and is best served over ice with an orange twist or topped with prosecco.
Distilled in 1926 and aged for no less than 60 years, only 40 bottles of this whisky were bottled. And of those, 12 were labeled and signed with an exclusive design by the "Godfather of British Pop art" Peter Blake — best known for his design work on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles. One of the twelve bottles recently fetched more than one million dollars at auction, and this one (number 9 of 12) will go under the hammer this fall from Sotheby's.
Distillers are having a tough time keeping up with the demand for Rye whiskey. And it's even tougher to find it bottled at cask strength. Knob Creek's latest release is unfiltered, uncut, and bottled at 119.6 proof. An award winner already at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, the whiskey was put into barrels in 2009 and will hit shelves at a reasonable price given the thirst for special releases whiskey enthusiasts continue to show.
The newest addition to their barrel-aged series, Barrel Runner is a Mosaic-hoped Imperial IPA.

It's set for release this summer and will be available in 750ml bottles and 12oz 4-packs.
Jägermeister is entering a new market with their latest release that features a blend of more than 56 botanicals. Manifest is said to be the world's first super-premium herbal liqueur and is crafted using a two-fold maturation process and matured in both small and large oak casks for more than a year to add flavor. The spirit is presented in a new clear 1L bottle with a hand-applied Jägermeister emblem in a bronze accentuate.
Based in San Diego, Pure Project Brewing blends Southern California style with unique flavors and ingredients. Their latest release, Sakura, is an unfiltered west coast IPA that is a collaboration between Pure Project and Pizza Port Brewing — a legendary brewpub with five locations throughout California. It draws its name from the Japanese cherry blossom and adds rice to the recipe along with Mosaic and Waimea hops.
Based in Finland, Kyrö is the world's northernmost gin and whiskey producing distillery. Koskue Barrel-Aged Gin is distilled using rye and botanicals that are locally sourced before aging the gin in American oak barrels for three months to absorb some vanilla and wood flavors. The distillers then "fine-tune" the blend with freshly distilled orange peel and black pepper. The spirit has won several international awards and is a favorite amongst whiskey fans.
Combining nuanced, balanced flavors with Keurig-like convenience, the American Press is an entirely new way to brew a cup of coffee. You use it by pressing down on the top, forcing your water through a patented reusable pod and up to the top, where it's ready to pour. A 100-micron steel filter ensures you won't end up with sediment in your joe, and the pressure-based brewing process leaves you with an espresso-inspired flavor profile that's less bitter than a cup of French Press. Its double-wall Tritan carafe can handle up to 14 ounces of coffee at a time.
Temescal Brewing's labels already showcase their love for the 1980's, and they're leaning into those influences even more with Push Pop IPA. The "Creamsicle IPA" is made to mimic the familiar flavors of one of the best ice cream truck staples ever and is brewed with lactose, vanilla beans, citrus zest, peach purée, and Southern Passion and Motueka hops.
Internationally known for whiskey, Suntory has also made gin since 1936. Their latest release is named Roku (Japanese for six) and highlights the six Japanese botanicals represented. Those six — cherry blossom, cherry leaves, green tea, refined green tea, Japanese pepper and yuzu — are blended with eight traditional botanicals to create a distinct flavor profile. The gin is packaged in a hexagonal bottle with Japanese calligraphy across the label to further represent the Japanese aesthetic.
Inspired by a handwritten recipe in George Washington's personal military journal from 1757, Freedom Reserve Lager was brewed by military vets that work for Budweiser. The beer is made using toasted barley grains and some hops and will be packaged in vintage stubby bottles and one-pint cans. The patriotic lager also continues a tradition of honoring American veterans as a portion of the proceeds sold will benefit a nonprofit organization that provides scholarships to military families.
With the annual Run For The Roses imminent, Florida brewery Funky Buddha has a special release to mark the occasion. The beer is brewed with barley, flaked corn, and rye for an American strong-style ale that mimics the recipe of Bourbon mash. Then fresh mint is added before the beer is aged in barrels that previously held High West whiskey for an extended period of time. The result is a unique 12% ABV beer that brings to mind a classic Kentucky cocktail that finds itself in the winner's circle every Spring.
A steady temperature and lack of light is an ideal environment for aging Champagne, but only a few houses in France take that to the extreme by aging their liquid underwater. Abysse is one of those, a Grand Cru Brut that 12 months under the sea off the coast of Southern France locked in a steel cage, after 48 months of aging on the lees in stainless-steel tanks and Burgundy French oak barrels. Abysse is the only ocean-aged Champagne being exported to the United States, with only 60 bottles being made available.
