Magazine stirs up controversy!

This weeks post comes with news of two new items in our store.

First, we have made a category expansion in the spirits department: Mezcal. This smokey cousin of Tequila is popping up in craft cocktail bars as close as our neighborhood, to the mid-west and New York.

The second item is a new publication, Imbibe Magazine.

This edition of The Cocktail Post has the Slow Fade cocktail pictured on the May/June issue of Imbibe. Its a mezcal-based cocktail from the Chicago bar Analogue created by Henry Prendergast and Robby Haynes.
