The Art Of The Cocktail Tastings & Recipe Demonstrations
Death & Co: Defining The Modern Speakeasy Movement
Join us on May 12th for our next Art of the Cocktail as we spotlight Death & Co, the legendary bar that helped shape the modern craft cocktail movement.
Opened on New Year’s Eve 2006 in Manhattan’s East Village, Death & Co quickly became known for its dark, intimate atmosphere, exacting service standards, and boundary-pushing cocktail menus. Founded by David Kaplan and Alex Day, it set a new benchmark for what a cocktail experience could be.
During this event, we’ll explore four iconic cocktails that rose to prominence through Death & Co.’s influence, each one a reflection of creativity, precision, and innovation behind the bar. Seating is limited to just 35 guests, so we encourage you to reserve your spot early!
