The Spaniard, One of NYC’s Buzziest Bars, Will Pop Up in Houston | Eater Houston

"A West Village whiskey-focused bar that opened in spring 2017, conceived by Bua Bar Group and offering inventive bar snacks overseen by PJ Calapa (formerly of Ai Fiori and Nobu). It’s launching a multi-city U.S. tour that kicks off in Houston on November 7 and continues to Washington, D.C.; Louisville; Chicago; and Miami, timed to coincide with the one-year anniversary of a Compass Box whisky release. The takeover spotlights a signature malt blend finished in Spanish red wine, sherry, and virgin French oak barrels, and features cocktails such as a Manhattan made with Averna amaro and orange bitters, a “Fast Buck” combining lime, ginger, P.X. sherry, and Peat Monster, plus shot-and-beer pairings." - Tierney Plumb
