A toast to the native side of the Riviera…

Throughout the month of October, we’re joining Santa Barbara Botanic Garden for “Garden to Glass,” a month long celebration of California’s native plants interpreted one cocktail at a time.

Sip our two botanical inspired cocktails, East of the Garden and Sage After Sunset, through October 31, with $1.00 from every cocktail sold benefiting the Botanic Garden and its work to conserve California’s native plants and habitats.
