Originally hailing from the Moluccas archipelago (aka “The Spice Islands”) in eastern Indonesia, pandan has been a staple ingredient of Southeast Asian cuisines for centuries. More recently, pandan has contributed its flavor and deep verdant color to pastries and dishes across Instagram. Herbaceous, nutty, and underscored with a fragrance of vanilla, pandan naturally lends itself to a host of cocktail applications, and its slender, blade-like leaves add dramatic flair as a cocktail garnish.

There are all sorts of high-minded reasons to love Champagne. Maybe you’re deeply invested in terroir expression or 16th-century European trade economies. But there’s also the simple truth that Champagne is generally a lot of fun. Pop a bottle of bubbles and watch the vibe change. Suddenly, it’s a party, and everyone wants to raise a glass. At least, that’s how it felt when I tasted Champagne Jeeper ’s Blanc de Blancs on a recent Monday evening.

If there’s one guiding law IPA devotees are taught at the beginning of their craft beer journey, it’s to drink their hazies fresh. For many, checking the canned-on dates on the bottom of IPAs is standard practice, and some are quick to pass up an otherwise automatic purchase if it’s more than a few weeks old. But one thing these breweries haven’t defined is what “fresh” really means.

The road of the American craft whiskey movement was paved by craft beer. The spirit of craft beer and whiskey are similar, but in their respective infancies, they were not exactly equal. Craft beer was a response to a rather bland and homogenous beer industry. Craft beer needed to exist because “big beer” was uninspiring. Craft whiskey was born of the desire to drink local and innovate, but “big whiskey” was far from bland or uninspiring.
