He was also a primary contributor to “The Essential New York Times Book of Cocktails” (both the 2015 and 2022 editions). Simonson won the 2019 Spirited Award for Best Cocktail and Spirits Writer.
We are thrilled to be hosting Mr. Simonson as he releases his latest essential cocktail guide – “Modern Classic Cocktails”. Robert will have a short presentation on his book and what deems a modern cocktail classic followed by a short Q & A and book signing.
