Black Tie Mezcal

There’s a new girl in town, and she’s the mother of all mezcal. Produced in Mexico, Del Maguey Single Village Mezcal is an oganic spirit that has become the darling of connoisseurs. Bobby Flay created a tasting dinner with it at his Mesa Grill restaurant in New York City, because he loves Del Maguey’s “unique, smoky, earthy flavor.” To make it, hearts of maguey agave are roasted over hot rocks underground, and then the mash is fermented and distilled in limited quantities by Zapotec farmers in remote Mexican Villages in the state of Oaxaca. Its’s been made this way, in this place, for more than 400 years. You’d have to call it’s a winning formula. 505-758-1222 or visit mescal.com

Island Essence


Since 1989, Maui residents Martin and Denise Diamond have used Hawai’i-grown ingredients to formulate their natural body-care products. Their Silky Smooth Lotion, created with kukui nut oil, aloe vera, and papaya extract, goes on light and leaves skin soft, moisturized, and sweetly scented. The Mist Cologne is made with pure botanicals and because it’s alcohol-freed, is nondrying. Both are available in six tropical scents. (888) 878-3800; islandessence.com
