Mix a James Beard Foundation nominated, woman-owned distillery with renowned bartenders, throw in an anniversary date for a women’s rights champion, and you’ve got RBG Week.

On August 10, 1993, Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG) ascended to the Supreme Court.

In celebration, BROVO Spirits  is throwing a week-long party August 5-11, 2019 and everyone is invited!

Invitation Details Here:

Cocktail prices vary per bar, and are set by each establishment.

“RBG is the moral compass of our country, reflecting the ideal of what our country should be,” said BROVO founder Mhairi Voelsgen.  “We thought it was time to honor someone who has defended the rights of every American and represented the greater good of our society through her opinions and most especially, her dissents.”

In an effort to not only shine the light on RBG, Voelsgen also wanted to raise funds in support of the ACLU.

“One dollar from each bottle of our Amaro #4 sold to the participating bars goes to the ACLU,” explained Voelsgen. “The ACLU defends the rights of all Americans and is a non-partisan organization, that accepts no government funds.”
