Just 33 grape varieties occupy 50% of the world’s vines. Because there are around 10,000 known grape species, that means around a third of 1% of the planet’s available species of grapes are taking up half the space available to them. 🤯⁠
⁠
Writer has the story about the 99%. From South Africa to Portugal, Spain, Italy and Uruguay, a host of wineries are seeing the value in giving new life to near-extinct grapes in the hopes that these revived varieties might be the best path forward in the midst of climate change and an ever-evolving wine market.⁠

Happy to our wondrous home! 💚🌍💚

A true marvel, this planet is also a precious, one-of-a-kind gift we must work to preserve and protect. To keep its abundance, its radiance, its light, its life… and ours.

While it’s not always easy, we must try to consider all of the ways we leave our physical mark on this world, and be conscious of the opportunities both large and small to make a positive impact on its preservation.

Every little bit counts, from properly processing all common household recyclables to participating in a beach clean-up to switching to reusable cups or bottles instead of plastic disposables, or anything else we can add to or shift in our day-to-day routines that helps retain the beauty of this big blue ball. Don’t undervalue any effort as feeling too small or unimportant, because we are only as strong as our collective efforts in this mission—no one can save the planet alone. 🤝

Here at Full Pour, we try to consider how we can be better land stewards in every choice we make, from printing on 100% post-consumer waste (PCW) recycled paper that’s Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) 🌳 certified and uncoated to prevent recycling issues from plastic-based laminates, to using natural inks and toner, and shipping our products in corn starch-based mailers that are completely biodegradable and compostable. We know we’re not perfect, but we’re trying to be as environmentally responsible as possible for the good of today and tomorrow, with the commitment to continue in these efforts and be open to more ways we can do even better. 🙏

Thank you for all your varied magnificence and beauty, Earth. We love and appreciate you, today and always. ❤️

A remarkably insightful innovator in the beverage and hospitality spaces, these days, Lauren “LP” Paylor O’Brien has become something of a 🌟 thanks to her winning turn on Netflix’s Drink Masters, a 10-episode cocktail competition reality show that featured 12 talented bartenders from across North America. ⁠
⁠
Through her exceptional (and 🤤 inducing) creations, she raised greater awareness and understanding of the thought and skill behind the craft of drink making and sharing.⁠
⁠
A multitasking entrepreneur through and through, LP’s experience includes a wide range of roles and titles, from beverage director and brand ambassador to R&D production chef, cofounder, nonprofit committee member, spirit judge and, oh, official bartender for the Emmy Awards. 🤯⁠
⁠
We were lucky to spend some time with the Ultimate Drink Master, who reflected on reality tv, rethinking hospitality, mindful consumption and the power of intention.⁠

It's FRIDAY 🥳 Time to think about what deliciousness lies ahead this weekend! ⁠
⁠
If you're looking to add some new options to your lineup, consider the high tide of 🍃 seltzers crashing onto the scene. ⁠
⁠
With low-dose options increasingly available—mostly in the 2–5 mg range—and many made with natural ingredients, zero added sugar, and no or low calorie counts, these seltzers are ready to join the beverage party. ⁠
⁠
And thanks to new technology, gone is the wait-and-see wildcard mentality of consumables past (sorry, questionable brownie experiences!), with on-set times similar to enjoying a favorite cocktail or glass of wine. 🙌⁠
⁠
If you're looking for a light chill factor without the hangover, these might be the droids you're looking for. 🤖⁠

On some of your favorite Italian wine bottles, have you noticed a little figure of a grape grower with a basket of grapes atop their head and the silhouette of bottle behind it? ⁠

⁠
Kerin O'Keefe spills the deets on FIVI, explains why this organization of nearly 1,500 member wineries across Italy produces some of the best bottles, and profiles her faves, including Villa Bucci, Cantine Mustilli, Pieropan, Le Fraghe, Istine and Adriano Marco e Vittorio
