[tw-divider]The Scoop[/tw-divider]

• An East Village retreat, Death & Co. (from owners David Kaplan and New York’s trailblazing bar owner and restaurateur Ravi DeRossi of Mother of Pearl, Amor y Amargo, and Avant Garden), has earned its reputation as one of the most influential craft cocktail institutions to emerge in the game. The speakeasy’s pioneering menu was crowned “World’s Best Cocktail Menu” by Tales of the Cocktail and continues to bring in every major award in the industry
• Barkeepers in bow ties and suspenders meticulously blend innovative ingredients right before your eyes. Martinis are served in five-ounce glasses, accompanied by icy carafes filled with the remainder of your beverage
• Behind the closed doors of Death & Co., inside the dimly-lit, brooding hideout, order the Cure for Pain (rye whiskey, vermouth, bourbon, and more) from the page-long list of elaborate whiskey varieties, or the Hard Sell (Dorothy Parker, Dolin Blanc, strawberry kiwi tea, Kalani Coconut, and celery bitters). The menu features liquor-inspired quotes from the likes of Ben Franklin and Ernest Hemingway
