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","books","endear:food-drink","Home","home goods","live-rates","Men","Men's","merchandise:wood","non-shoppable","omit:zest","Online Store","ultimate","Valentines gift guide","Valentines Gifts for her","Women","women's","Women's Valentines"],"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":50,"collections":{"edges":[{"node":{"title":"Women's","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/267229855914"}},{"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":"Missoni","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/285248454826"}},{"node":{"title":"Assouline","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/313208930474"}},{"node":{"title":"Valentine's Gifts for Her","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/326730514602"}},{"node":{"title":"Active - In Stock","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/328748269738"}},{"node":{"title":"Valentine's Day Gift Guide","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/347558379690"}},{"node":{"title":"Father\u00b4s Day","id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/Collection\/356764418218"}}]},"variants":{"edges":[{"node":{"id":"gid:\/\/shopify\/ProductVariant\/45581757120682","sku":"9781614289487","compareAtPriceV2":null,"priceV2":{"amount":"1400.0"}}}]}}
Bal Harbour Shops and Nicholas Air joined Cristina Cuomo at her Hamptons home for an intimate afternoon bringing together friends for a celebration of style, wellness, and connection.
The afternoon unfolded at an easy summer pace, beginning with a restorative sound bath before moving to a waterside lunch, a special performance by Bella V, and plenty of time for conversation among a group of inspiring women—including Fern Mallis, Alex Shiva, Clarita Fodor, Bertha Gonzalez, Dayssi Kanovas, and Teresa Sorkin—from the worlds of fashion, wellness, design, culture, and beyond.
Thoughtful Bal Harbour Shops touches throughout brought a little bit of our tropical home to the Hamptons, with guests departing with Lululemon gift bags as a final summer treat—because the best of summer is always about where you are, who you’re with, and enjoying the moment.
Bal Harbour Shops joined renowned stylist Elizabeth Saltzman in the Hamptons to toast her new role as our inaugural Stylist Expert in Residence, and naturally, a very stylish crowd came to celebrate.
Aerin Lauder, Alina Cho, Lisa Perry, Lara Shriftman, Julie Hillman, Nina Runsdorf, Cameron Silver, Malcolm Carfrae, Sarah Wetenhall, Dayssi Olarte de Kanavos, Amy Griffin and more gathered for an intimate afternoon marking the beginning of Saltzman’s six-month residency.
Launching this November, the partnership brings Saltzman’s singular eye to Bal Harbour Shops’ Access Client Services Program, where personal service is about to get even more personal.
Consider brunch served, and your next look sorted.
We can’t stop watching this on “loupe.” H. Moser & Cie’s Streamliner Tourbillon Rose Gold Skeleton Rainbow watch features a spectrum of invisibly set sapphire gemstones and a distinctive skeleton dial. The watchmaker includes a high-quality loupe for viewing the piece’s most intricate details, and you can view it up close for yourself here, at Bucherer at Bal Harbour Shops.
