  • Lillet Blanc

    Taste: Honey Citrus Peel, Floral, Semi-Sweet 

    Price Category: $ 

    Lillet is a blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc wine with 15% of fruit liqueurs flavored with oranges and herbs.  Around 1985, the fortified wine was reformulated to reduce the quinine bitterness and balancing sweetness.  This allows the spirit to highlight its floral and citrus notes as well as dryness from the Sauvignon Blanc.

  • Rhubarb Bitters

    9 proof/4.5% ABV 

    Fee Brothers 

    Made with natural and artificial flavors, these Rhubarb bitters bring a lot of lingering flavor to the front  of the palate.  A light vegetal flavor with hints of fennel and a berry sweet scent.  These bitters have almost no color  or alcohol content so several dashes will not have any effect on the cocktail color bite or bitterness, which could be surprising for rhubarb.

Jaws

Jaws begins as an invitation to experience the timeless appeal of a New England island getaway, where sandy beaches, charming harbors, and a close-knit coastal community make Amity seem like the perfect summer destination. That idyllic escape is disrupted when an unseen menace turns the Atlantic into unfamiliar territory, forcing the town to balance its tourism economy against the safety of its visitors. The journey soon shifts from beach vacation to open-water adventure as a local police chief, a seasoned fisherman, and an oceanographer set sail in pursuit of the elusive great white shark. Their voyage captures both the majesty and unpredictability of the sea, revealing a rugged maritime world far beyond the crowded shoreline. By the film's end, Jaws has transformed a simple island holiday into an unforgettable exploration of the ocean's beauty, mystery, and raw power.
