The Cocktail Lovers on tour: New York Special

In the first of our city specials, we're in New York where we spent three nights in seven incredible bars – eight if you count the two at Sip & Guzzle. As well as trying the drinks we caught up with the movers and shakers behind them to find out more about their respective venues and what they think makes the bar scene in New York tick.

We also booked in to Great Jones, the first working distillery in Manhattan for 100 years and chatted to Hanna Lee and Michael Anstendig from Hanna Lee Communications to get their perspective on what's making the city pop right now and about hear more about their recently launched project, New York Bartender Week.
