On Wednesday, August 8th, we hosted a cocktail launch party for Bar Director Tobin Shea’s latest collection The Plain Truth About the Best Seeds. Guests were able to preview four cocktails from the new collection along with passed hors d’oeuvres from Chef Neal Fraser. The collection and its accompanying booklet are inspired by vintage Burpee Seeds catalogs — encouraging all to grow their own flowers, fruits, and vegetables locally or at home.

The Plain Truth About the Best Seeds cocktail collection is available now through April 2019. See the full menu here and a selection of recipes here.
