Precise and scholarly, bar co-manager Jamie Macbain has an old-school nattiness, while partner Duane Sylvestre exudes a sunny storyteller’s charm. Together, this duo mixes up great drinks at Michael Mina’s luxe steakhouse in the Georgetown Four Seasons Hotel, holding court over a crowd of business travelers and Georgetown scenesters indulging in duck-fat French fries, hot buttered rum with vanilla bean and allspice, and Armagnac infused with foie gras. Lighter libations include the excellent Skaal, with aquavit, fresh lime, celery juice, and habanero syrup. Insider tip: It’s a great place to meet up with a nondrinker, thanks to mocktails designed for an adult palate. Try the popular West Indian limeade, with fresh lime, ginger syrup, angostura bitters, and sparkling water. Open daily.
