"Today, the historic downtown Fairmont Olympic Hotel opens its new speakeasy Founders Club, tucked just behind a bookcase at the Olympic Bar. Advertised as an intimate, spirit drinker’s enclave, Founders Club is a decadent hideaway, accented with leather couches, plush red chairs, and a mirrored ceiling, that seats up to 30 people. The emphasis at Founders Club is on aged and limited-edition spirits and cocktails by award-winning beverage curator Jesse Cyr." - Mark Van Streefkerk
