In 1920, the US federal government’s prohibition of alcohol began, effectively closing every bar in America. Of course, the alcohol ban didn’t keep Americans from drinking. It simply moved the party underground. Speakeasies popped up throughout the States. When it came to scofflaws, there was no place quite like Chicago. And when it came to the Chicago scene, rumor had it that there was no place as lively as The 226 Club. Of course, separating fact from fiction isn’t easy considering the place was built on secrecy and an endless stream of cocktails. One hundred years later, that’s part of the charm. Amidst all the tales of legendary mobsters, and crooked city officials, the most fascinating stories of them all were those of the ordinary joes and janes looking for an extraordinary night–risking a run-in with the police for a night of libations and dancing with friends and strangers alike. That sense of optimism, adventure, and the joy of living for tonight inspired 226 Club. This olfactive concoction opens with sparkling notes of fresh Lemon and Orange Bitters. Tonic notes mingle with the scent of Star Anise and Geranium giving the mix a touch of sweetness, while Black Pepper lends a splash of effervescence. Warm Cedarwood, Vetiver, and Cashmere Woods create a contrasting warmth, calling to mind the feel of a lively crowd, ready for the time of their lives.
