🥃 "NA Spirits Good Enough to Sip Neat"
Hubby and I cofounded an NA botanical spirit called (parentheses). He’s a former sommelier who quit drinking and got into fermentation. I’ve reported on the sober curious/mindful drinking movement since I quit drinking in 2015. Our skills are complementary in that he formulates our artisanal, small-batch spirit, and I handle marketing/PR.
We’re thrilled that bartender/author/journalist/queer icon, John deBary, recommends (parentheses) as an “NA spirit good enough to sip neat” in Punch’s Best Bottles to Gift This Holiday Season gift guide! In fact, (parentheses) is the *only* NA spirit on this list.
If you’re looking for the perfect NA spirit to gift this holiday season, please keep (parentheses) in mind.
