Noir cocktails
Apr. 29th, 2014 09:36 amLast week we took the upstairs neighbors to Wilson & Wilson - it was our long-delayed Christmas present, but also an excuse to try it. W&W is a noir detective-themed area inside Bourbon & Branch with its own speakeasy password to get in.
The decor is nice. Unlike B&B's back room, this is nicely lit and not crowded; it seats about twenty.
The cocktail menu is much more limited than B&B's main. There's a huge selection of straight pours; the main attraction is their flight of three cocktails. There are 3-5 selections in each group. We all liked our first two selections, but the third was not as widely pleasing. You couldn't pry me away from mine, which had tons of Amaro and other bitters; but the ladies didn't drink theirs beyond a tasting sip.
Not that we go there very often, but I'd be more inclined to visit the main section or even the library rather than return to W&W. Although (if we had the funds) renting out that section would be a grand time.
