The Macallan Whisky Tasting

We had a pleasure of hosting a Scotch Tasting last week with one of our favorite humans on the planet, Brian MacGregor. Brian is a whisky expert, enthusiast, aficionado and just plain great to be around kind of guy. And he also happens to be the market manager for one of world’s greatest and our favorite Scotch Whiskies, Macallan. We had an intimate group of personally invited guests that had the opportunity to learn and try some fantastic expressions. Brain took us through what makes Macallan one of the most known and respected distilleries in the world. To be invited to one of our future tastings / events please email us here

Spring / Summer Sport Coat

With the warmer Spring and Summer season approaching we are excited to deliver an incredible sport coat for a good client of ours. For this he wanted something with a loose weave that would be light weight and breathable. We suggested the summer jacketings bunch by Caccioppoli Nr. 3801 in fabric 380158. This amazing cloth did just the job, at 380 gr. and wool and linen blend had the perfect balance of breathability with a loose weave and slubby texture.
