Reserve Cocktails
classic cocktails featuring exceptional spirits
Anejo Last Wordilegal anejo mezcal, chartreuse yellow vep, chartreuse green, luxardo maraschino, lime
--This mezcal riff on the Detroit Athletic Club classic showcases the transformative power of the oak barrel. We've selected a 100% Espadin Mezcal aged for more than a year in new American Oak and an ultra-rare, limited production of Yellow Chartreuse aged for a minimum of 8 years. Rich & decadent, this may be the Last Last Word you'll ever need.24
Quarter-life Crisis Mai Taiflor de cana 25yr nicaraguan rum, casa magdalena guatemalan rum, mandarine napoleon, liber & co. orgeat, lime *contains nuts*
--Our version of the Trader Vic classic highlights the most luxurious release from sustainable rum producer, Flor de Cana. We've paired this with an orange liqueur created for Napoleon in the 1700s and rounded out the cocktail with a locally produced almond syrup. Sip on this while you figure out what to do with the rest of your life.25
Hill Country Old Fashionedstill austin "the musician" bourbon, liber & co. caramelized fig, angostura
--It doesn't get more classic than this. We've selected a remarkable bourbon that is made from Texas grains, then distilled, aged, & bottled in Austin. Soft & supple, this old fashioned continues to develop in the glass and lingers on the palate.20
There Is No Spoon Margaritadesert door texas sotol, Lalo blanco tequila, lime, agave
--We adapted Julio Bermejo's famous modern classic with the inclusion of a locally produced spirit made from the sotol (or "desert spoon") plant. Lalo Blanco rounds out the palate with pure, unadulterated agave flavor. Dangerously crushable.20
Ancient Oak Espresso Martinibelvedere "smogory forest" single estate vodka, st. george nola coffee liqueur, beatrix coffee roasters "voyager" espresso, demerara
--Rye-based vodka from the hardwood forests of western Poland - paired with coffee liqueur specifically engineered to evoke the experience of New Orleans chicory coffee. This one wakes you up and starts the party!19
