Created Co. Bigface — Created Co. / Created Co.

Jimmy Butler’s passion for coffee is well known, but his obsession with the details goes beyond the beans—down to the very cups they’re served in. Today, Bigface Coffee and Created Co. unveiled an exclusive drinkware collection featuring premium ceramic drinkware designed for coffee enthusiasts who appreciate form and function.

Created Co. has been working with Jimmy Butler since the early days of Bigface, crafting the first mugs and tumblers when the brand launched online in 2021. Whether it’s the tumblers seen in Butler’s pre-game arrivals or the mugs he uses daily, Created has been integral in shaping Bigface’s drinkware experience. When Butler set out to design his first retail café in Miami, he turned to Created Co. for the perfect mugs—ones that customers could enjoy in-store and bring home to elevate their coffee rituals.

Ascênda is the tequila brand that’s betting on transparency, not celebrities

How Ascênda's founders built a premium sipping tequila and a clean canned drink from the same tequila, and why that should matter

Clothing, Shirt, Adult

Walk down the canned-cocktail aisle at just about any grocery or liquor store right now, and the amount of new drinks popping up is pretty mind-blowing. The ready-to-drink (RTD) category has exploded over the last few years, and tequila sodas, in particular, have become the default for a younger generation that wants something lower in calories and cleaner-ingredient options. But there's an uncomfortable secret behind a lot of those shiny cans. The words “made with real tequila” often mean almost nothing. In many cases, only 51% of the alcohol inside is actually tequila; the rest could be other types of alcohol and additives you wouldn’t expect. This has been the game plan manufacturers have used for decades, and the plan Ascênda was created to close.

Ascênda, whose name means “to rise,” is the work of two founders, Mark Bland and Nicholas Soglanich (Nic), who looked at that crowded shelf and saw an opportunity rather than another trend to chase. Their pitch is refreshingly simple: a ready-to-drink tequila soda made with tequila good enough to sip on its own, and water good enough to sell on its own at any Whole Foods or high-end grocery store—no malt liquor (yes, really), sugar, and no artificial flavors, no mystery. You get 100% blue agave tequila, sparkling high-pH water sourced from the highlands of Jalisco, and a deliberate blend of electrolytes, magnesium, potassium, and sodium that the founders chose because they're the same minerals a lot of us already reach for during the day.

Dinner at Benoit is like a Graduate Course on Classical French Cusine

At Alain Ducasse's Benoit, a century of Parisian tradition lives on in Midtown Manhattan.

Food, Food Presentation, Meal

Classical French cuisine is the culinary equivalent of the Western canon: an ancient and ever-fertile tradition that shaped—and continues to shape—everything that came later. Just as old books provide a deeper understanding of modern civilization, old-guard French restaurants deepen one's understanding of modern gastronomy.

Benoit, a bistro in Midtown Manhattan, is like a graduate seminar on the history of French cooking. The original Benoit has been a Parisian landmark since 1912, one of the French capital's most venerated bistros de tradition. After stewarding the restaurant for generations, the Petit family entrusted it to chef Alain Ducasse in 2005. Since then, Ducasse has opened sister restaurants in Tokyo, New York, and Kyoto.
