    The Threshold Fog

    Mezcal, amaro & orange with dry ice fog — the entry that determines everything

    If the entry lands, the night has a spine

    Why this cocktail? David designs threshold moments. This fog-wreathed mezcal cocktail is that moment of atmospheric transformation.

    The Story

    David Landgraf watches the threshold moment at every event. At Jazz at Lincoln Center, fog crept along the floor as guests stepped into a rainforest gala — Manhattan dissolved, the room transformed. This smoky mezcal cocktail with dry ice fog re-creates that atmospheric entry: dark, dramatic, and designed to make you pause at the doorway.
