I recently went to New York City with Michael and Rosemary and we had a fabulous and action-packed trip. Our agenda included 6 cigar bars, 2 distilleries, and multiple bourbon and whiskey bars. Here are some photographic highlights of our trip.

The Elephant Bar in the NoMad Hotel makes a pretty killer Manhattan.

Opus X at the Grand Havana Room.

Dinner at the fabulous Flatiron Room. Cocktails were amazing and the whiskey selection was superb!

The courtyard at Widow Jane was so charming.

Rosemary and I got to see the Heavenly Bodies exhibit at the Met.

We stopped by and spent a rainy Brooklyn morning with our friend Colin Spoelman at Kings County Distillery.

Hudson Bar & Books was one of the most unique cigar bars I have ever seen. I can’t wait to go back!

Fine & Rare is another of the fabulous and unique places I can’t wait to get back to. Dinner here and drinks after at Bar & Book for my birthday anyone?

Words cannot describe how beautiful The Brandy Library is. You really just need to see it for yourself. Adding this to the birthday tour!
