Keri Golf
Author: C
Being a female golfer, keri golf collection really appeals to me. I love that we can come into a “man’s” sport with a feminine flair. The “neapolitan ice cream” color palette comes to life in modern geometrics and a joyful daisy print. Prices are reasonable. From $75.00 to $375.00.
Decadence to the extreme. The chief mixologist at Skyview Bar in the Burj Al Arab in Dubai has created the “27.321″ named for the cost in UAE dirham, the floor where the Skyview Bar is located (27th) and the height of the Burj Al Arab (321 meters). The cocktail is made from Macallan 55 year old single malt natural color whisky, exclusively produced ‘dried fruit bitters’ that carry and support the whisky’s flavor, and homemade passion fruit sugar. The resulting cocktail is then served over ice cubes made of water from the Macallan distillery in Scotland, along with an oak stirrer made from a Macallan Cask. The cocktail is presented in a Baccarat 18-karat gold glass, which the buyer gets to take home. If you’re fortunate enough to be in the area, this concocsion will set you back around $7,450. Cheers!
