Sommarøy Spirits Expands Grocery Footprint at Jewel-Osco and Whole Foods
No more martini-induced headaches
Dreaming of an easier way to wake up the next workday without a martini-induced headache, or seamlessly transition to a glass of wine at dinner without feeling out of control? There are now more choices for the nearly 65% of adults nationwide moderating their alcohol intake.
Sommarøy Spirits – mid-strength gin and vodka with zero carbs, lower calories and two-thirds the alcohol of traditional spirits – is expanding its grocery footprint, offering more consumers a sophisticated, full-flavor option to embrace true moderation.
The no- and low-alcohol market grew by more than 7% in 2022 according to IWSR.
With an ABV of 27.5% – one-third less than the alcohol content of traditional spirits – Sommarøy is officially defining the mid-strength category as spirits between 25-30% ABV. As a result, retailers like Jewel-Osco and Whole Foods Market are now reserving shelf space to meet consumer demand for quality spirits between non-alcoholic and full proof.
Already available in major beverage retailers like Total Wine & More, Lee’s Discount Liquor and Binny’s Beverage Depot, Sommarøy Vodka is now available in 73 Jewel-Osco stores in Illinois and Sommarøy Gin is available at 53 Whole Foods stores across 12 states, with distribution anticipated to expand significantly by year’s end.
“People don’t want all or nothing when it comes to moderating their drinking
sometimes you want a mellow buzz
without going completely non-alc
or settling for a watered-down cocktail.
More consumers can now add the solution directly to their shopping carts.”
James Cosma
CEO and co-founder
Sommarøy Spirits

About Momed:
Momed, owned by Alex Sarkissian and short for “Modern Mediterranean,” offers a fresh take on the diverse flavors of the Mediterranean basin, emphasizing seasonality and sustainable ingredients. Since opening its doors in 2014, Momed Atwater Village has become a cherished dining destination in Los Angeles, known for its warm ambiance, inventive cuisine, and commitment to community. With Chef Vartan Abgaryan now at the helm, Momed continues to push culinary boundaries while honoring its Mediterranean roots.
About Chef Vartan Abgaryan:
As a child growing up in Los Angeles, Vartan Abgaryan was deeply moved by the way his family’s Armenian American culture celebrated all occasions, both happy and somber, with food. Inspired by the pure joy of cooking and how food brought many generations together, Abgaryan decidedly embarked on a career in the culinary realm. Educated at Le Cordon Bleu, Abgaryan graduated in 2004 and went on to cook at the famed Andre Soltner restaurant Lutece for one and a half years. In 2006, he moved back to the West Coast to be closer to his family, where he worked at Red Pearl Kitchen, followed by three years as Executive Chef at A Restaurant in Newport Beach. He then headed inland to accept the position of Executive Chef at Public Kitchen and Bar at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, where he received 2-stars from the Los Angeles Times food critic and was mentioned as a ‘Restaurant to Watch’ in Esquire magazine by Food Writer and Critic John Mariani.
In 2012, Abgaryan joined the Eastside’s iconic Cliff’s Edge as Executive Chef. Here, he successfully took the eight-year-old neighborhood restaurant and made it relevant again. At Cliff’s Edge, Abgaryan became known for his highly seasonal approach to ingredients and his stunning presentation of dishes – Eater Los Angeles’ Matthew Kang commented that his dishes were “among the most beautiful plating in the city.” In 2014, Cliff’s Edge was awarded three stars by LA Weekly’s Restaurant Critic, Besha Rodell.
After a successful run, he elevated his role, quite literally, by opening 71Above – the highest restaurant west of the Mississippi, in July 2016. Since opening, the restaurant has received great critical acclaim and put Abgaryan on L.A.’s culinary heat map. Under his hand, 71Above was awarded 3-stars by LA Weekly, and Los Angeles Magazine named it ‘one of the Top Ten New Restaurants of 2016,’ with Critic Patrick Kuh remarking that “the experience is luxury that reflects on-point execution.” The Los Angeles Times’ beloved Jonathan Gold called his Suckling Pig dish “something out of a charcuterie dream.”
After serving over 300 diners a night at elaborate helicopter-hovering heights, Abgaryan had become one of the city’s most talented and respected chefs. When an opportunity presented itself to bring a refined culinary experience to Abbot Kinney Boulevard, considered by many to be “America’s coolest block,” he took it. Abgaryan’s culinary endeavor, Yours Truly, with partners Dave Reiss (formerly of Salt Air) and Paul Pruitt (Founder of New School), allowed him to focus less on the number of guests and work within a more intimate dinner setting. Continuing to build dishes blending flavors from many cultures, Abgaryan’s dinner menu exhibited a multi-cultural approach to each dish, combining ingredients from the Middle East, Asia, and Europe.
In February 2023, Abgaryan took on a new challenge as the Chef at Momed in Atwater Village, where he continues to bring his creative vision and dedication to seasonal, culturally rich cuisine.

Santa Monica ‘s Mon Ami “First Class to Spain” Sept 19 Experiential Dining Brings Catalonia to Your Table
If you’re not already familiar with Mon Ami, you’re missing out on one of Santa Monica’s tastiest hidden gems.
Tucked behind the crowds on Ocean Avenue, this hidden courtyard restaurant feels like the best-kept secret for cocktails and bites near the beach.
Nas Negahban’s Mon Ami “First Class Experience’ takes Your Tastebuds to Barcelona
Under the guidance of Nas Negahban from Pacific Coast Hospitality Group, a seasoned traveler with a passion for authentic culinary experiences, Mon Ami strives to mirror the richness of Mediterranean cultures in every aspect.
The Mon Ami event series will launch September 19.
Reservations to the Barcelona First Class Series Event: https://resy.com/cities/santa-monica-ca/venues/mon-ami?date=2024-09-19&seats=2&query=Mon%20ami&activeView=list
Pricing is: $95 plus tax and gratuity for the 4-course food menu
Or $125++ for the food menu and 2 included drinks.
Speaking on his inspiration and Mon Ami’s concept, Nas explains:
“I’ve always had a passion for building new concepts and brands across various industries.
We currently have a few restaurants in Spain and other countries
but Santa Monica is home. ”
Nas Negahban
Mon Ami is the true Mediterranean experience.
With an emphasis on a variety of culinary dishes and spices and inspired spirits with an enhanced flair attached to it from several countries located on or by the Mediterranean Sea such as Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Morocco, & many more with a lot of their food curated and selected from the local Santa Monica Farmers Market.
First Class Series Event on September 19 – Extraordinary Journey to Barcelona
The First Class Event Series includes 2 items from Mon Ami’s drink menu (specialty cocktails or wine)… and dishes from their food menu:
- appetizer
- first course
- second course
- choice of 3rd course
- and choice of dessert
If that sounds like a lot, it is. And not in a “I’m stuffed and need to roll home” kind of way.
Incredible flavor.
Diversity.
Filling.
But you leave feeling pleasantly fulfilled. Not heavy.
For me, that’s incredibly important.
Mon Ami’s First Class Series is a great idea for date night, for a casual business dinner, for a birthday or celebration.
Most importantly, it creates memories. It’s been a few days since my dinner, and I’m still remembering it and smiling.
Mon Ami’s Blackberry Mojito
Mon Ami’s Catelonia Margarita.
The dinner started with a light appetizer, perfect to ignite your appetite.
Amuse Bouche (Iberian Jamon with Burrata, Calabria Chile on a crustini)
Light with a good crunch and subtle flavor.
Equally important, the perfect conversation starter. If your dining table has a quiet moment, the arrival of this plate sparks smiles, giggles and reactions.
1st Course
Tapas Trio: Truffle mushroom, Chicken Mousse with a Pickled Onion, Spicy Tomatoes and Pepper
This is the first feel of diversity. Flavor, mouthfeel; each of the three delivered a different experience. From subtle, to bold, to a kick of spice.
Is your dinner Instagrammable? It is if you’re at Mon Ami.
All evening long diners were taking pics of their meals. Why? Sure, it’s delicious. But the plating. Beautifully well-designed and playful.
Mon Ami takes their flavor seriously, but has fun creating each dish into art.
2nd Course
Grilled Octopus with Patatas Bravas
The grilled octopus is tender and juicy, paired well with crispy fried potatoes and drizzled with red sauce. It made you hungry for what’s next…
3rd Course
Marinated Skirt Steak with a side of Spanish Rice and Roasted Zucchini
Don’t forget, the 3rd course has options: steak vs pasta.
Choosing skirt steak because it’s commonly a tougher cut and I was curious to see how Mon Ami’s skilled chef would create a heavenly plate. Here, the marinade brought out the tender juicy flavor that we hoped for. Well-prepared.
Our table shared smiles, giggles and mmmm’s with each bite.
Dessert
Crema Catalona with Shaved Chocolate and Berries
Again, dessert offered choices. Dessert was between Crema Catalona and Sorbet. I chose the Crema because I wanted to see how the Chef and his kitchen would prepare the dish. His choices were impressive so far and I chose to trust his instincts.
I’m glad I trusted him.
It was perfect for me. To be clear, I don’t want a mountain of sugar. I want 5 bites of flavor and pleasure.
If tonight had been a date, sharing 2-3 bites each would have been the perfect evening to a perfect dinner.
Born and raised in Santa Monica, Nas is committed to elevating his hometown’s hospitality scene to reflect the sophistication of beachside cities he has encountered abroad.
This is present in every aspect of MON AMI’s ambiance, from its lush indoor-outdoor seating surrounded by greenery to its late-night live entertainment and picture-perfect cocktails. MON AMI is meticulously curated to enchant and immerse guests.
The event series will launch September 19 at the Mon Ami Santa location.

Sustainably Crafted Flor de Caña Rum launches #TogetherForAGreenerFuture to Honor Earth Month
Sustainably Crafted Flor de Caña Rum launches #TogetherForAGreenerFuture to Honor Earth Month a global campaign to plant 70,000 trees in 2022.
To celebrate Earth Month, Flor de Caña, a Carbon Neutral and Fair Trade Certified ultra-premium rum, is joining forces with retailers, bars, restaurants and consumers around the world to launch a year-long, global reforestation campaign that aims to ensure a greener future for generations to come.
Advertisement
The sustainably crafted rum brand has already planted over 800,000 trees since 2005 and is well on its way to fulfill its pledge of planting one million trees by 2025.
The campaign titled “Together for a Greener Future“, supported by environmental charity One Tree Planted, includes a series of activations in points of sale and initiatives on social media (#TogetherForAGreenerFuture) to raise awareness on the importance of reforestation, as well as tree planting events in various countries throughout the year.

Individuals will also be able to support reforestation efforts by donating through Flor de Caña’s fundraising page with One Tree Planted, which guarantees that for every dollar donated, one tree will be planted.
In turn, Flor de Caña will match all individual donations received during the campaign.
“One Tree Planted is proud to continue our partnership with Flor de Caña,
who have supported reforestation projects through unique fundraising campaigns over the years.”
says Matt Hill,
Founder & Chief Environmental Evangelist at One Tree Planted.
“As the trees grow, they’ll restore soil stability and health, improve water filtration and absorption, mitigate the effects of climate change, improve biodiversity and provide a host of benefits to the local communities”.
“As a global leader of sustainability practices within the spirits industry, we are deeply committed to the protection and preservation of the environment,” said Mauricio Solórzano, Global Ambassador for Flor de Caña.

“Through our partnership with One Tree Planted we’re taking our commitment to the environment to the next level and working together to inspire people around the world to get involved in our effort to restore forests and ensure a greener future for generations to come.”
The story of Flor de Caña dates back to 1890, when a young Italian adventurer decided to establish a distillery at the base of Nicaragua’s tallest and most active volcano, the San Cristóbal.
130 years and five family generations later, the entire production process continues under the supervision of the same family.

Flor de Caña rums are distilled with 100% renewable energy and naturally aged for up to 30 years in bourbon barrels without artificial ingredients or added sugar.
The brand was awarded “Best Rum Producer of the Year” by the International Wine and Spirit Competition (IWSC) in 2017 due to the quality of its liquid.
