"At once the name for a beautiful tidefall in Marin County and the old French spelling for “to the sea,” Almere is the work of restaurateurs Susannah and Olivier Souvestre. Made in a traditional alembic style in a still imported from Bordeaux, France, the French-wheat vodka, espelette chili vodka, London dry gin, and gin made with makrut lime and lemongrass are all worth a sample. Until the owners open a formal tasting room, try the spirits at the bar at Zalta, the couple’s Mediterranean restaurant in downtown Sausalito. The Positano, a riff on a Negroni topped with Aquafaba foam, is a must." - Christina Mueller
