For the cocktail and spirits connoisseur
Columbia Room, one of the top cocktail spots in DC, is preparing cocktail kits with the necessary ingredients, tools, and directions. We have our eye on the old-fashioned one ($100) that comes with a bottle of Old Overholt Bottle in Bond Rye Whiskey, rich simple syrup, aromatic bitters, lemon, and a signed copy of
Spirits, Sugar, Water, Bitters from barman/owner Derek Brown. More into the straight stuff? Jack Rose drew lines around the block when it put its world-class whiskey collection on sale at the start of the pandemic. Now the bottle shop is online via Tock and features whiskey tasting flights in themes like American Favorites ($50) and Pappy’s Family Recipe ($65).
