What lady Gaga drinks in Wine Country? FigCello from HelloCello!

Lady Gaga is Gaga for FigCello di Sonoma
International celebrity Lady Gaga dined and drank her way through Sonoma’s Wine Country Last weekend. Surrounded by world class wines what did the pop icon drink? Lady Gaga was seen enjoying FigCello di Sonoma in the signature cocktail the “Fig Kiss” at the girl & the Fig restaurant.
FigCello di Sonoma is a local
ly crafted specialty spirit produced by Sonoma Valley based micro-distillery, HelloCello. What started as a pet project to produce a new liqueur from handpicked figs and 16 botanicals has developed a local cult following by mixologists, chefs, fans and now Lady Gaga. HelloCello produces award winning spirits including Limoncello di Sonoma, FigCello di Sonoma, BelloCello and Hooker’s House Bourbon. Lady Gaga’s proves that there is more to wine country than wine. HelloCello is the spirited side of wine country!

The international pop star Lady Gaga ate and drank her way through Sonoma over the weekend. Gaga and her BF went to Girl and The Fig in Sonoma for lunch, where they ate mussels, salads with beets and figs, a Croque Monsieur with egg, and steak frites during a late Sunday afternoon lunch at the bar. This meal included a Fig Kiss cocktail which features FigCello di Sonoma liqueur made locally in Sonoma by HelloCello, (that’s us!)

HOOKER’S HOUSE BOURBON
STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY
FINISHED IN PINOT NOIR BARRELS
“the spirited side of wine country”
100 proof Sonoma-Style American Whiskey

Here’s to a tasty bourbon that only a Hooker could have inspired.

Using a two-step barrel aging process, the spirited folks making Sonoma’s own Hooker’s House Bourbon import the good stuff from Kentucky distilleries, then age it in hand-picked pinot noir barrels for a flavor that’s entirely unique. The four-year-old bourbon “finished” for nine months imparting subtle wine and oak flavors and nuances. According to creator Fred Groth of HelloCello/Prohibition Spirits, the result is deep flavors of coffee, caramel, black cherry, vanilla and baking spices.

So what’s with the name? Let’s turn our history books back a page to General Joseph Hooker, a Civil War veteran best known for his love of stiff drinks and friendly ladies. Hooker’s House Bourbon refers to the handsome soldier’s Sonoma home and is also, of course, a cheeky reference to the frisky gals Hooker brought along during some of his military campaigns to raise morale among the men. Among other things. These agreeable ladies became known as “Hooker’s Brigade” and later, just “Hookers”.
At 100-proof there’s not doubt this is one stiff drink. Just the way the captain would have wanted it.
Available through Prohibition Spirits locally at Bottle Barn, 3331 Industrial Drive Santa Rosa, 528-1161, $36.
