Come back every Wednesday for another funny, informative video documenting my inept food adventures. NY Craft Cocktail Tour explores the craft cocktail culture of New York from local distilleries to specialty spirit shops to amazing cocktail bars and speakeasies.
We’ve all heard about this revival in speakeasy-type hidden bars. Well, the first to do it here in New York was about 25 years ago and it was so clandestine, that many New Yorkers still don’t know about it. Angel’s Share (which refers to the lost bit of bourbon that evaporates during the aging process) is hidden behind a Japanese izakaya in the East Village and makes some amazingly inventive cocktails.
