Location: 82 Mercer

Description: At Good Spirits, Edible’s seasonal cocktail pairing event, they match mixology-minded chefs and food artisans with spectacular, storied spirits (plus some beer, wine and coffee for good measure), asking them to strive for liquid symbiosis.

In their estimation, the resonance between tastes and tipple goes far beyond mutually beneficial flavors.

They believe getting to know craft spirits at your neighborhood speakeasy or dive bar is no less relevant than following your cauliflower back to the farm, or your bagels, lox and cream cheese back to the baker, fishmonger and dairy.

Here’s a lineup of who’s teaming up with who on the 28th:

Back Forty West and Rhum Clement
Cadaqués and El Buho Mezcal
Dutch Kills and Bacardi
Anfora and White Pike Whiskey
Fort Defiance and NY Distilling Company
Fort Reno and Warwick – American Fruits
Huckleberry Bar and Michter’s Whiskey
Jo’s and Hudson Whisky
Maison Premiere and Bache Gabrielsen
Monument Lane and Privateer Rum
Northern Spy Food Co. and Crop Organic Vodka
Perry St and COMB Vodka and COMB White
Rubirosa and Hendrick’s Gin
Salumeria Rosi Parmacotto and Long Island Vodka
The Beagle and Compass Box Whisky
Whitehall and St Germain
August and Eden Ice Cider
King and Brooklyn Gin
Veselka Bowery and Vermont Spirits
FAIR. Spirits and Whole Foods Market and Dallis Bros. Coffee
Plus…

Joe felt strongly that PIH was the best health care provider in Haiti and other third-world countries and our tastings with Joe at Chambers Street have raised about $10,000 over the past three years. Nine retail stores, and the restaurant Rouge Tomate, have planned tastings of Louis/Dressner wines during the week of October 22nd to October 29th, the proceeds of which will be donated to PIH in Joe’s memory. And he won’t be there to insult any of the customers… Here are the stores participating, with dates, times and phone numbers to call for information.

Chambers Street Wines – Saturday, October 22nd, 2 to 6:00pm (212) 227-1434

To celebrate the launch of wine selections on our sister site Gilt Taste, we spoke with sommeliers Joe Campanale and Jordan Salcito about Napa and Tuscany, and how to work with a sommelier.
