Southern Smoke Foundation

Bottles together with High Wire Distilling Co are joining forces to raise money for a much-needed F&B foundation- Southern Smoke Foundation which is a nonprofit founded and powered by current and past F+B workers, that have felt the heat of the industry firsthand. Their efforts are dedicated to creating a meaningful safety net of support that doesn’t exist for most people in the F&B world.

Over the years, the grants have helped ensure that F+B workers in crisis can cover basic needs such as living expenses, critical medical care and medications, assistance for natural disasters, childcare, and transportation, as well as household instability. Additionally, they now have Behind You – a no cost counseling service for F&B workers.

THE DEETS

From October 3rd-19th you can go to any of the participating restaurants on the tour and order their special Hat Trick Gin Drinks (each restaurant has their own, unique cocktail made with Hat Trick) $1-$2 from each drink sold goes to the Southern Smoke Foundation AND you can mark off in your cute passport which restaurants you were able to go to! Passports will be available at Bottles, High Wire, and at every stop on the tour!

Additionally, from 9/29 -10/29 every bottle of Hat Trick Gin that is sold at Bottles (all 4 locations) $1 will be donated to SSF.
