Vital Hand Cream

$45.00

Nuori makes their products in Denmark, in small batches every 12 weeks, to keep active, 100% naturally derived ingredients potent without ever adding artificial preservatives. All of this makes for a more effective, skin-friendly product; the remarkable texture and little-to-no scent are extra bonuses. The boxes stamped with a “Start Using By” date, so products aren’t left for years waiting for the perfect occasion. We love their rich hand cream—especially over the cold winter months.

Tham ma da: The Adventurous Interiors of Paola Navone

$85.00

Italian architect and designer Paola Navone’s conceptual work has made her well-known in the home decor and hospitality worlds; won her awards; and led her to work with many brands over her 30+ year long career. On her travels all over the world, finding products and inspiration, Navone discovered the Thai phrase “tham ma da,” meaning “everyday.” Despite Navone’s eye for design and interiors being entirely extraordinary, this approach to the simple or the everyday permeates her process—she takes the ordinary, and makes it remarkable.

100 Proof Vodka

40 Years Old Sherry Oak Scotch

$8,000.00

Age is but a number, in most instances, Scotch not included. With The Macallan’s latest age statement release, the exquisite 40 Years Old (at 45% ABV), the impact of sherry oak casts translates to ginger and cinnamon spiciness. Entirely unexpected from the brand, there’s also a very delicate peatiness to this expression, due to the brand’s production processes 40 years ago. Altogether, though, it’s as smooth as one dreams. As there are only 500 bottles worldwide, with 70 in the US, it’s best to email shop@themacallan.com to be connected with a point of sale for the 40 Years.

At 25 years old, Flor de Caña’s Centenario is a true rarity and one of the most flavorful options in the ever-emerging sipping rum category. This award-winning spirit carries plenty of caramel notes from all the time it’s spent in wood.
