Why we pour here

A raw bar pouring this season's exclusive card beside a by-the-glass Champagne list that goes deeper than it has any right to.

Very few rooms make cold drinks feel like an event. This one does: mountains of crushed ice, glassware straight out of the freezer, and the week's three drinks landing at the same temperature they were written for.
