This Gin Wheel is Not Your Grandmother’s Lazy Susan

Talk about reinventing the wheel. Bombay Sapphire EAST and design firm AvroKO took the classic Lazy Susan and spun it into something magical. This limited edition Gin Wheel is pretty much the perfect gift for any classic cocktailer in your life, especially if the gin & tonic is his or her poison of choice.

In its first time ever brand collaboration, AvroKO – whose clients include restaurants like Saxon & Parole, LAVO and Beauty & Essex – teamed with Bombay Sapphire to create this original design, modeled after the time-honored tradition of home entertaining and social gatherings throughout the world. The handcrafted walnut Gin Wheel spins on a brushed stainless steel base to reveal sleek hidden alcoves, perfect for stashing the tools and ingredients to make your favorite cocktails at home. Keeping your home bar organized has never looked this good with ample room for garnish, ice, bar tools, cutting boards, coasters, glasses and a special pair of tongs that doubles as a locking mechanism for the wheel. We think Don Draper would approve.

Few people have reinvented their lives—and the lives of others—as radically and impactfully as Steve Nygren. From pioneering Atlanta’s casual fine dining scene in the 1970s to founding Serenbe, a biophilic wellness community nestled in the hills of Georgia, Nygren’s journey is one of vision, values, and a deep commitment to living in harmony with nature.

What began as a spontaneous weekend drive to show his children farm animals eventually led to the purchase of 60 rural acres and a complete lifestyle shift. That grew into what is now Serenbe: a 1,400-acre community designed around the principles of sustainability, human connection, and holistic well-being. It is home to more than 1,500 residents, 700-plus homes, a boutique hotel, and one of Georgia’s first certified organic farms.

Honey whiskey 101: What it is, how to use it, and which brands to try now
what exactly is honey whiskey?
Tullamore D.E.W Irish Whiskey

Flavored whiskey is big business in the spirits world. Take a stroll along the aisles at your local liquor store or peruse your go-to online retailer, and you’ll be met with myriad flavored whiskeys. This includes flavors such as cinnamon, maple, chocolate, fruit, and honey (among others). And I could write an article about the various popular flavored whiskeys. But today is all about honey. What exactly is honey whiskey?

In my years of writing professionally, I’ve tried my fair share of flavored whiskeys. Many of which are honey whiskeys. While I wouldn’t drink these whiskeys every day and likely not neat (not judging you if you do) or on the rocks, they are well-suited for a wintry Hot Toddy or to elevate your favorite whiskey-based cocktail.
