This episode of The Buildout is brought to you by Farmer’s Gin. Whether you are building a bar, you currently are operating a bar, or you just run a bar at home, you need to have a Martini on your menu — and that Martini deserves Farmer’s Gin. Farmer’s Gin is created by the same amazing people that created Michter’s Bourbon. Every single bar deserves a great gin, and Farmer’s Gin is perfect for creating all of the classic gin cocktails. Farmer’s Gin is made in Idaho at the first organic distillery in the United States. It’s made using Regenerative Organic Certified grain that’s grown on a family farm. The regenerative approach they use supports soil health, biodiversity, and also just creates a really delicious gin. You can learn more by following Farmer’s Gin on their socials — @FarmersGin — or heading to farmersgin.com to learn more.
Taking over a decades-old family restaurant is daunting enough. Turning it into a cocktail bar in Chicago’s Chinatown — a neighborhood without a high-end cocktail destination — raises the stakes even more. But partners Lily Wang and Joe Briglio embraced the challenge, bringing Lily’s family along for the ride. The result is Nine Bar, one of the most exciting new additions to Chicago’s cocktail scene, drawing drinkers to a neighborhood many hadn’t considered to be one for cocktails.
On this episode of “The Buildout,” Lily and Joe join Adam to share how Nine Bar came together, from navigating family dynamics to honoring the culture of the neighborhood.
