The Buildout Podcast: Echo Lake
This episode of The Buildout is brought to you by Farmer’s Gin. It’s brought to you by the same amazing people that brought you Michter’s, and it’s actually the gin that I use at home for my Martinis. It’s clean, crisp, unfussy — perfect for building any kind of Martini that you would like. 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. It has notes of juniper, elderflower, lemongrass, coriander, rose and angelica root. It is good for the planet, and great for Martinis. You can learn more by following Farmer’s Gin on their socials — @FarmersGin — or heading to farmersgin.com to learn more.
What happens when a celebrated cocktail journalist and one of the country’s foremost rum authorities join forces? The result is Echo Lake. But opening the bar proved more challenging than both owners, Chloe Frechette and Paul McGee, expected. Chloe had spent her career covering bars, not opening them, while Paul had built his reputation in Chicago, not New York.
On this episode of “The Buildout,” Chloe and Paul join Adam to talk about the challenges they faced, the lessons they learned, and how they created one of the most exciting new additions to the cocktail and rum scenes.
