bourbon​

in 1893, julian "pappy" van winkle began as a salesman for a liquor wholesaler at the ripe-old age of eighteen. during prohibition his firm was licensed by the government to produce whiskey for medicinal purposes. in 1972 van winkle reintroduced the pre-prohibition brand old rip van winkle after brands including old fitzgerald were sold to other companies. the 1911 jim beam was bottled for the historic pendennis club, and along with the 1950 old fitzgerald, was a part of a collection owned by diplomat william a.m. burden.

armagnac​

armagnac is a distinctive brandy produced in the region of gascony, in the foothills of the pyrenees. traditionally distilled only once, armagnac is often less polished than cognac, however, long aging in oak barrels softens the flavor and develops complexity.

chartreuse​

hand-crafted by carthusian monks since the 1740s, grande chartreuse is produced using a secret formula including 130 medicinal and aromatic plants and flowers. today, only two monks are entrusted with this highly guarded recipe. green chartreuse, the original elixer, gets its color from chlorophyll, while yellow chartreuse has a slightly milder and sweeter flavor and is colored with saffron. we are featuring two extremely rare vintage cuvées. the 1944 "vieillissement exceptionnel" celebrates the liberation of paris of which only 800 bottles were produced. the green grand chartreuse was estimated to have been bottled in the late 1950's when production was taking place in both tarragona, spain and voiron, france.

produced in italy's north-eastern region of friuli-venezia-giulia, nonino,"quintessentia" is grappa based and infused with a blend of gentian root, saffron, licorice, rhubarb, sweet and bitter orange, tamarind, and chinchona bark. this rare bottle of cinzano, "china elixer" was bottled in the 1960's. the “elixir of life” is a mythical potion that grants the drinker eternal youth. in ancient china, emperors sought the fabled elixir and believed that ingesting long-lasting precious substances such as jade, cinnabar and gold would bestow some of that longevity on the person who consumed them.
