With colorful cocktails lining the bar and wisps of smoke dancing in the dim light, these retro bars embody that daring spirit of one of the city's mos iconic eras - something Cornell & Diehl sought to capture in their bold, Cellar Series take on the traditional Navy flake: Speakeasy Navy Blend. Estimated peak: 10-15 years.
