Say “I Do” to Magnolia Bakery’s Wedding Cakes

Wedding season is nigh, so hurry up and either propose, say “I Do,” or find a mate so that you have an excuse to eat wedding cake from Magnolia Bakery this summer.

Kinmont’s Pisco Pro

But considering the experience that Kinmont’s Jason Brown recently had in Peru, the pisco apprenticeship sounds even more amazing. One of a very select handful of bartenders in the world in attendance for the apprenticeship, Brown was flown down to Peru for the harvest to learn the art of pisco distilling up close and personal.
