WOODFORD RESERVE MASTER DISTILLER IN DETROIT
It was a pleasure to have lunch with Elizabeth McCall, Master Distiller at Woodford Reserve, in Detroit at Lumen Restaurant. It was refreshing to spend time with such a smart, charming, and fun businesswoman. Lumen is a great venue with delicious food and drinks. The menu designed for us was PERFECT, from the appetizer to the dessert. The Detroit Sour Cocktail was delicious and beautiful. There was some "business" involved at the meeting, especially because this was Elizabeth's first time in Detroit. Let's just say that we will have a fun, and exclusive project coming soon from Woodford Reserve. Again, BIG THANK YOU to Woodford Reserve, Elizabeth McCall, and Lumen Detroit. BTW, check out Elizabeth on Fox 2 Detroit, she was great.
Cheers,
Joseph Kakos

LALO TEQUILA TASTING THIS THURSDAY
Please join on Thursday July 31, 2025 from 5-8 pm for a Lalo Tequila Tasting. If you haven't had Lalo, then you need to try this INNOVATIVE and DELICIOUS Tequila. Like their ads say, "Made from 3 ingredients, Water, Blue Weber Agave, and Champagne Yeasts". This ALL NATURAL Tequila is extraordinary in its simplicity which is why people love the pure, clean taste.
TASTE: Soft sweetness from the roasted agave, followed by a burst of citrus.
FINISH: Long and easy on the palate with lingering citrus, leaving a clean and refreshing aftertaste.
Lalo is a versatile tequila that can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails like Margaritas or Palomas.
Hope to see you on Thursday from 5-8pm for this FUN TASTING.
Cheers,
Joseph Kakos

BASTILLE DAY PARTY PICS
Thank you to all our clients who showed up and had a blast celebrating Bastille Day 2025 at Kakos. The Bhakta 2011 was such a big hit, 12 years, plus 1 year of aging in Armagnac makes a huge difference in flavors. We also had some great Champagne flowing, which made things even more festive. Everyone seemed to enjoy the Pain au Chocolat with the Champagne, which was decadent. We hope see you next year for Bastille Day at Kakos. Also stay tuned for another celebration this Friday.
Merci,
Joseph Kakos

Happy Bastille Day!
Do you know that in France, they don't refer to this day as Bastille Day? They simply call it La Fete Nationale Francaise, or La Fete du 14 Juliet. Either way we hope you enjoy this historic day, especially because Detroit has such a huge French influence. We'll be celebrating at Kakos from 4-7pm with the Bhakta 2011 Bourbon finished in Armagnac "French" barrels, and a wonderful Champagne called J.M. Gobillard. So if you feel like celebrating one of the biggest days in French history, come by Kakos and have a sip.
Cheers,
Joseph Kakos
