Have you seen this post from the White Dog Distilling Facebook page?  Very interesting……

Ever wonder about the difference between moonshine and vodka? Both are usually clear, neutral tasting spirits consumed in a variety of ABV’s and come with a lot of misconceptions. Despite their similarities there are also a lot of distinctions, so let’s take a look at some: 

Vodka and moonshine are both classified by the government as “neutral spirits” and therefore defined as, “Spirits distilled from any material at or above 95% ABV and, if bottled, bottled at not less than 40% ABV. Vodka is specifically distilled or treated after distillation with charcoal or other materials so as to be without distinctive character, aroma, taste or color. Moonshine on the other hand is a Neutral Grain Spirit (NGS) and is defined as being “distilled from a fermented mash of grain”; interestingly the government also stipulates that an NGS can be stored in oak containers (aka barrel aged), although often this is not the case with moonshine. As we often point out moonshine is a pretty broad term that can be used as a catchall for any spirit not easily defined, therefore NGS only makes up one section of the moonshine spectrum.

 A spirited event with the King of Cocktails at The United

“For the first time at The United: Film, Literature, and Art are united in a single event featuring mixologist Dale DeGroff, filmmaker Douglas Tirola, and artist Jill DeGroff” 

The United is proud to present a unique event that will combine film, mixology and art and feature local talent. This immersive experience will take place on the evening of Sunday, June 26, 2022, at The United, 5 Canal Street in Westerly, Rl, and will include a premiere theatrical screening of the film, “HEY BARTENDER”, followed by a meet and greet with James Beard award-winning mixologist and author, Dale DeGroff and the acclaimed filmmaker, Douglas Tirola. After the presentation, there will be a book signing and cocktail event in The United Gallery. The United is a newly renovated multi use venue with cinemas, black box theater, art gallery and a shared doorway to its partner restaurant, The Cafe, which will also host a private event with Mr. DeGroff the following day for local beverage and restaurant industry staff to learn more from his lifetime of experience making cocktails.

Celebrated for being the first to revive the great classic cocktails of the 19th century with simple fresh ingredients from his helm at the Rainbow Room in the 1980s, mixologist Dale DeGroff reinvented the bartending profession, setting off a cocktail revival that continues to flourish to this day. His 2002 book, The Craft of the Cocktail (Random House), has been regarded as the most influential bartending guide for more than two decades. His latest volume, THE NEW CRAFT OF THE COCKTAIL: Everything You Need to Know to Think Like a Master Mixologist (Penguin Random House) collects his forty years of expertise and creativity with new recipes and state of the art innovations. The book will be available for purchase at the June 26th film screening and cocktail event.

HEY BARTENDER, which premiered at SXSW to rave reviews and nominations, is a documentary set against the craft cocktail movement that follows two bartenders chasing their dreams. One an apprentice working to become a principal bartender at one the most famous cocktail bars in NYC and the other an owner/bartender at a corner bar in a small town. Through their stories we experience the rebirth of the bartender and the comeback of the cocktail. Douglas Tirola is an award-winning director and producer whose films have premiered at Sundance, Berlin, Tribeca, Telluride and SXSW and include DRUNK STONED BRILLIANT DEAD (Magnolia), HEY BARTENDER (Showtime) and others. The award-winning BERNSTEIN’S WALL about Leonard Bernstein will be released this Fall.

Sunday’s events will also coincide with an ART OPENING in THE UNITED GALLERY: “Bon Vivants, Barflies and the New Cocktailians” featuring paintings and the whimsical caricatures of Saloon Artist Jill DeGroff. Jill is renowned among the cocktail cognoscenti for having captured the craft cocktail era like none other. A native Brooklynite, she now lives in Stonington, CT with her husband, author/mixologist, Dale DeGroff, whom she credits for her amazing journey.
“Jill’s work completes the evening’s trifecta and forwards our mission here at the United to unite the community through the arts. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better way to experience the joy of a colorful evening at my local watering hole than through Jill’s paintings. Nor could we have found an artist that complemented this event more splendidly,” says artist and United Staff Member Bess Gaby.

Tony Nunes added, “This collaboration with The Cafe is the first of many events where we hope to bring outstanding professionals from the culinary and beverage industries After the film screening of Hey Bartender on Sunday, guests will have the opportunity to meet award-winning filmmaker Douglas Tirola, mixologist Dale DeGroff, and artist Jill DeGroff in The United Gallery. We are so fortunate to be able to tap into the talented individuals that are attracted to what The United is able to offer to our community.”

Gregg’s Restaurants & Taverns, with locations in Warwick, Providence, East Providence, and North Kingstown, is proud to announce that its seasonal menu is featuring an adaptation of the Exeter Job Corps Academy’s “Winning Dish” from the 10th Annual Rhode Island ProStart® High School Culinary & Management Competition: a pistachio-encrusted lamb with wild mushroom risotto topped off with sautéed vegetables. 

Chef Steve Trabucco, director of Gregg’s Restaurants & Taverns’ culinary operations, modified the students’ lamb dish to feature it on the restaurant’s seasonal menu. For $22.99, guests can enjoy “The Winning Dish”: four pieces of bone-in lamb rack with a Dijon mustard and a pistachio, panko, thyme, and rosemary crust, served with asparagus, mashed potatoes, and soup or salad. 

“Gregg’s is proud to support Rhode Island’s ProStart® division and the students at Exeter Job Corps Academy,” said Chef Steve Trabucco, Gregg’s Restaurants & Taverns. “Featuring ‘The Winning Dish’ on our menu is our way of acknowledging and rewarding the hard work of the culinary team at Exeter Job Corps Academy and brings their combined vision to life.”

Under the direction of Chef Mark Bennison, Exeter Job Corps Academy students Sabina Ulysse, Jacquline Ambler, Isabel Uzosike, and Kiant’e Warren won the culinary portion of the Rhode Island ProStart® Competition and will represent Rhode Island and compete for $250,000 in scholarships at the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation’s National ProStart® Invitational competition, which returns to Washington D.C. this May, following a two-year pause.

“We’re thrilled to see one of our member restaurants, which just so happens to be a staple in our industry on the local level, partner with ProStart® to support the next generation of great Rhode Island chefs,” said Dale J. Venturini, President/CEO of the RI Hospitality Association (RIHA) and the RI Hospitality Education Foundation (RIHEF). “These students will never forget the feeling of seeing their dish come to life and served to their family, friends, and neighbors. The RI Hospitality Education Foundation commends Gregg’s Restaurants & Taverns for demonstrating its commitment to supporting our industry’s up-and-coming talent.”

Sarto Restaurant Opens With A Unique Approach To Italian Food In Providence

Sarto Restaurant in Providence, Rhode Island

One of Providence’s most celebrated restaurants, Sarto, located at 86 Dorrance St., has reopened. Winner of Wine Spectator’s 2021 Restaurant Award which honors the world’s best wine lists, Sarto is celebrating its long- awaited re-opening since closing due to COVID with a brand-new menu and a fresh take on “authentic” Italian. 

“In keeping with Italy’s authentic, old-world culinary traditions, we tried to approach our menu the same way an Italian chef opening a restaurant here in the US might,” states Sarto, Culinary Director, Gary Hatfield. 

“Sarto’s menu features dishes composed of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, that honor our region – but with a modern twist. 

Patrons can order a mix of regional Italian and New England inspired favorites like Zuppa di Vongole (clam soup) with sweet/spicy Italian sausage, potatoes, clams, baby kale, a touch of cream and served with house made focaccia bruschetta. For seafood lovers there is smoked mussel Cacio e Pepe made with local Atwells Gold Cheese and Cozze Al Diablo (locally sourced spicy mussels). Ragu d Coda di bue (Ragu of oxtail) which combines the rich flavor of braised oxtail and Italian sausage and 30-day aged bone in Ribeye served with Narragansett Bay Sea Salt broccolini, marble potatoes and Saba-Beef Jus are available for those seeking more substantial entrées. 

The dinner menu isn’t the only aspect of Sarto that is legendary. The space, which features an expansive bar, once housed an apothecary, money-to-loan business and later the Philip Wolfe Haberdasher, which inspired the name Sarto or tailor in Italian. There is also an open kitchen concept where patrons can enjoy the culinary team prepare Sarto’s menu items from scratch. 

In a whimsical nod to the restaurant’s roots, the drink menu features Big and Tall or higher alcohol drinks with bold flavors, Light and Layered drinks with lower alcohol and Petite non-alcoholic options. Beer and cider aficionados can enjoy High Limb Noble Series cider and other local draft brews.

“We’re thrilled to open our doors to new and loyal patrons again,” said Karsten Hart, COO for Sarto and parent company, G Hospitality. “We’ve been working hard during the pandemic to continue sourcing local foods and various ingredients to bring our guests the most innovative, delicious tasting dishes in the area,” he said.

Sarto Restaurant is open for dinner Wednesday – Sunday from 4pm-midnight. For more information, please call 401-270-0790 or visit www.sartoprovidence.com

Finback Brewery Announces Whale Watching On May 21, 2022

Inaugural festival to feature over 50 acclaimed breweries, timed “Whale Sightings” releases of rare beers, VIP-exclusive stouts, access to new merch, and more

Finback Brewery Whale Watching Festival 2022

Finback Brewery is pleased to announce the inaugural Whale Watching festival on Saturday, May 21 in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Tickets are now available for purchase at the link here: https://whalewatching-2022.eventbrite.com.

Finback’s highly anticipated entry into the world of beer festivals is more than two years in the making. The event was originally slated for the spring of 2020, but it had to be postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.

“We were certainly disappointed that we did not get a chance to host our very first Whale Watching festival two years ago, but it gave us time to really think about how to offer a unique and engaging experience for our guests when it was finally safe to gather,” says co-founder Basil Lee. “We are thrilled to have some of the best breweries in the country participate, and look forward to throwing a well-run and successful event for the beer community, who have shown us tremendous support through everything.”

Whale Watching attendees can enjoy delicious beers from a roster of over 50 acclaimed and exciting brewers from around the country, many of which have never been offered in the Ocean State before, including 3 Sons Brewing Co. in Dania Beach, Florida; Other Half Brewing in Brooklyn, New York; 450 North Brewing Company in Columbus, Indiana; Great Notion Brewing in Portland, Oregon; Horus Aged Ales in Oceanside, California; and Burial Beer Co.in Asheville, North Carolina. Many of these producers will be in person to serve their works, offering guests an opportunity to socialize with some of the industry’s most innovative and creative minds. Entertainment from DJ Chris Maestro of New York City’s popular beer and vinyl bar, Bierwax, and a selection of Rhode Island-based food vendors such as Ming’s Asian Street Food, PVDonuts, and TrapBoxPVD will also be available.

In a playful nod to the world of elusive, limited-edition beers, Finback will tap select breweries to release super small quantities of rare brews at specific times throughout the afternoon, billing them as Whale Sightings. There will be no need for a pair of binoculars to catch a glimpse of these special drops, promises Kevin Stafford, co-founder and brewmaster: “Just keep your eyes on the clock and have an empty glass ready.”

As the festival date nears, Finback plans to partner with several Rhode Island counterparts, including Narragansett and Long Live Beerworks, on collaboration beers. Finback is headquartered in New York, with locations in Glendale, Queens, and Gowanus, Brooklyn, but both Lee and Stafford are originally from the New England region—the former being a native of Rhode Island. “It is deeply important to us to host Whale Watching in our hometown, a place that is so influential in our personal stories as well as the brewery story,” Lee says. “We hope to start a rich tradition with this festival that beer fans can look forward to for years to come.”

Whale Watching will take place outdoors at 249 Roosevelt Avenue, overlooking the Blackstone River, and run from 1:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tickets cost $80 for General Admission and $180 for All Access, which includes early entry at 12:30 p.m., a special stemmed taster glass, and bottles of two limited-edition, barrel-aged imperial stouts created specifically for the event:

  • Whale Watching 2022: Banana Pie: Imperial stout with banana, vanilla, pudding, and ladyfingers, and aged in bourbon barrels
  • Whale Watching 2022: Coffee: Imperial stout with coffee syrup, coconut, caramel, and sea salt, and aged in bourbon barrels

News Bites: Narragansett Creamery Wins at World Championship Cheese Contest / RI Breweries Easter 2022 Schedule / Blackstone Valley Culinary News

Narragansett Creamery wins Gold and Bronze Medals at the World Championship Cheese Contest

Narragansett Creamery was awarded a First Place Gold Medal for its Low-Fat Coffee Yogurt at the World Championship Cheese Contest on March 3–5 in Wisconsin. Our low-fat coffee yogurt contains milk and probiotic cultures, contains no stabilizers or preservatives, and is lactose free.

Narragansett Creamery was also awarded a 3rd  Place Bronze Medal for its Burrata Cheese. Each Narragansett Creamery Burrata is made by hand. Mozzarella is stretched to form a pocket where it is then hand-filled with Stracciatella, a mixture of “torn” mozzarella (Stracciare – to tear apart) cream, and a trace of salt.

This year’s World Competition was highly competitive with 2,978 entries from 29 countries. The contest initiated in 1957, is organized by the Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association.

“We are honored to win these awards in the Yogurt and Burrata categories and to be included with such an outstanding group of dedicated and creative cheesemakers,” said Mark Federico, owner and co-founder of Narragansett Creamery.

Narragansett Creamery is a family-owned creamery based in Providence, RI that uses milk from nearby New England farms to make its artisanal cheeses and yogurts.

“We thank our local farmers who supply us with excellent quality milk which enables us to create award-willing cheeses,” Federico said.
