On paper it might sound like a simple concoction\u2014water and grain, fermented by yeast, then aged in a wood cask\u2014but whiskey is about so much more than its physical ingredients. During the middle ages, Europeans called it aqua vitae, or \u201cwater of life,\u201d a name that speaks to the cultural, social, and historical significance that this spirit holds. In The Impossible Collection of Whiskey, bestselling spirits writer Clay Risen unpacks the history of this storied drink, inviting the reader to tour some of the world\u2019s most famed distilleries and their finest bottles. From the best Scotch of the Scottish Highlands to Kentucky\u2019s finest Bourbon, Risen\u2019s selection of 100 unparalleled whiskeys come from age-old makers as well as trailblazers of the craft distilling movement that has swept across the globe. Here are whiskeys selected not only for their exquisite flavor but also for rarity, age, flavor, and innovation. Bottles from countries with nascent whiskey markets, such as India and the Czech Republic, sit beside old American classics like Pappy Van Winkle and some of the rarest, most coveted bottles on the market. Risen marvels at bottles like Ireland\u2019s Midleton Very Rare 45 Year Old, the oldest, most expensive Irish whiskey in the world. Together, these 100 bottles comprise a collection of whiskeys so exclusive that no one could ever assemble them all under one roof. A must-have for the library of any true whiskey connoisseur, The Impossible Collection of Whiskey is a carefully crafted homage to a liquor long revered as the \u201cwater of life.\u201d Presented in a wrought-iron trimmed wood box modeled after an authentic whiskey barrel, this addition to Assouline\u2019s bestselling Impossible Collection may very well be its most outstanding volume published to date. Many of the images in our Ultimate Collection are printed on separate sheets of premium art paper and individually hand-tipped onto each page. This artisanal process can sometimes result in the appearance of a non-uniform page alignment. Complimentary white gloves and signature canvas tote bag are included with each purchase from Assouline's Ultimate Collection.","availableForSale":true,"vendor":"ASSOULINE","tags":["Active-Product","badge::Back in Stock","badge::Coming Soon","badge::Currently Unavailable","badge::Out of Stock","badge::Pre-Order","book","Home","home goods","live-rates","Men","Men's","merchandise:wood","omit:zest","Online Store","ultimate","Valentines gift guide"],"publishedAt":"2025-08-15T20:16:16Z","images":{"edges":[{"node":{"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0530\/3815\/3898\/files\/Whiskey-IC_01_45533a06-b9be-4dc3-a2e4-799ec94c0789.jpg?v=1761668550"}},{"node":{"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0530\/3815\/3898\/files\/the-impossible-collection-of-whiskey-assouline-2.jpg?v=1761668550"}}]},"priceRange":{"maxVariantPrice":{"amount":"1400.0"},"minVariantPrice":{"amount":"1400.0"}},"options":[{"name":"Title","values":["Default Title"]}],"totalInventory":10,"collections":{"edges":[{"node":{"title":"Men's","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/267231723690"}},{"node":{"title":"All Products","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/267342151850"}},{"node":{"title":"Home","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/284779315370"}},{"node":{"title":"Assouline","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/313208930474"}},{"node":{"title":"Active - In Stock","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/328748269738"}},{"node":{"title":"Valentine's Day Gift Guide","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/347558379690"}}]},"variants":{"edges":[{"node":{"id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/ProductVariant\/45581757120682","sku":"9781614289487","compareAtPriceV2":null,"priceV2":{"amount":"1400.0"}}}]}}
As we stay glued to Men’s Fashion Weeks around the world, we can’t help but be inspired by what’s also happening in our own fashion hub, courtesy of Isaia at Bal Harbour Shops.
The perms and press-on nails we can leave in the ‘80s, but when it comes to retro-neon-sparkle appeal, we’re happy to step into the future in the latest from Gianvito Rossi, available here at Bal Harbour Shops.
Thank you to everyone who came out this weekend to support our 8th-annual Ice Cream We Love event, with proceeds benefiting Holtz Children’s Hospital. From mint-chip cones to Neapolitan ice cream sandwiches, vanilla shakes, and frozen delights galore, we hope you enjoyed this cherished charitable event.
He didn’t just design gowns worthy of red carpets and elite galas, he created an entire universe of Italian glamour. From the label’s founding in Rome in 1960, Valentino was always known for a high-level of craftsmanship, effortless elegance—and of course, an emphasis on striking shades of red. As one of the first European designers to arrive at Bal Harbour Shops, at the luxury boutique Martha’s, we will cherish him forever in our hearts, as well as in our closets. Valentino Garavani, 1939–2026.
