The concept of Neat, created by well known LA bar man Aidan Demarest, is great. They prefer to serve all spirits neat paired with house made sodas, juices and syrups; this way you can truly taste what defines the spirits are and what makes them unique. Its kind of like a deconstructed cocktail. You really get to observe how the flavors in the pairings go together and complement each other. They have a very extensive list of spirits, that would probably take some time to try them all. I like to try two similar spirits at a time, to see how two different Gins differ, or how a Bourbon differs from a Rye, Tequila vs Mezcal, light Rum vs Dark Rum or how and Islay Scotch compares to a Highland or a Japanese Whisky. Its good to know though, that even thought they would like their patrons to understand and appreciate spirits, once they know you do, you can get yourselves some great cocktails here as well. Everyone really knows their stuff, their spirits and the art of cocktail making.
