Ryes of the Dilluminati
Sunbuttered Sazerac Rye, Dilled Sakura Wood Aged Sour Beer Honey, Lemon, Pickle Foam, Bruleed Pickle
“It has come to my attention that a cabal, styling themselves the Dilluminati, is ryesing and even now gathers in secret, their intentions steeped in brine and obscurity. They whisper of balance — sweet, sour, and strange — but I fear their true aim is to pickle the very soul of the Republic.”
— G. Washington (Earth 617)
(Seedy, Briney, Fun)

Primavera Sound Potion
Red Wine and Mexican Coke Switched Bourbon, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof 2025 CG Pick, Vanilla Aperitivo Syrup, House Bitters, Jamaican Pimento Wood Smoke
An ode to the Kalimotxo (pronounced Cali-Mocho), a drink concocted in the 70’s to sell red wine at a Spanish music festival wine by mixing in Coca-Cola.
