One Pommeau Before I Kill

Lino, from Upstairs on the Square, shows us that the rich apple flavor with a sweet & nutty finish make this the perfect aperitif for Fall or Winter. Add a twist of lemon for a little citrus zing and enjoy.

About Augusto Lino

"Lino," as his friends and loyal customers call him, is originally from Brazil and came to New York City several years ago before settling in the Boston area as bar manager at UpStairs on the Square. Bringing back the classics and adding a twist to them as well is Lino's style. He does a great job of showing us how to make quality drinks the correct way and sharing some cocktail lore while he's at it. And look how snazzy he looks in his jacket and tie!
