"After 20 years of drawing crowds to downtown Napa with a well-executed menu dedicated to the culinary traditions of Northern Spain, Zuzu proprietor Mick Salyer turned his attention to gin, opening a gin-based cocktail bar adjacent to the original restaurant earlier this fall. The rough-hewn woods and golden-hued walls enhance the tavern vibe while bar manager Josh Weed spins juniper-fueled gold with cocktails like the lavender and rose-scented April Showers or the Capisce, layered with tomato water, basil oil, truffle, and lime. Try one on the new patio." - Christina Mueller
