"The second I step through the doors of the Sagaponack Farm Distillery, I know this dinner will be special. I’m greeted with a stunning scene of floor-to-ceiling windows revealing a garden patio lined with string lights. Just beyond is the clear star of the show: one long table in the middle of a lush field, set with a white table cloth, pink flowers, and 40 chairs. First things first, I order off the custom cocktail menu created for the evening (I go with The Farmer's Daughter, made with the distillery’s own cucumber vodka, grapefruit, lime, chili flakes, and topped with a sweet pea tendril). Drink in hand, I head outside to better take in the scenery, but I only make it about five steps before a server with an hors d’oeuvres tray asks me if I’d like a wood-roasted oyster in a butter herb sauce. I greedily slurp one down and spot our chefs from local farm-to-table catering company Fyr & Salt busy at work in the back corner of the field." - Hannah Freedman
