CHECK OUT OUR BARTENDER OF THE MONTH!!!

The Cazbah is a tapas restaurant and wine bar with two fabulous locations in the Greenville, South Carolina area. Our original location in downtown Greenville, SC is a destination for creative, sophisticated, high-energy diners. A place where the tapas menu is as inspired as the local artwork on the walls, the wine list has a cult following, and the atmosphere is sleek and sexy.
Our newly-opened Greer restaurant offers a similar and equally outstanding experience but with a unique menu and the added attraction of rooftop dining.
Our guests love the casual, communal dining experience that a tapas style meal provides--perfect for sharing and tailor-made for enjoying slowly with a glass or a bottle from our impressive wine list. The menu changes quarterly, so even our regulars get a chance to try something new.

The Cazbah in downtown Greer, SC is one of the more recent additions to the newly-revitalized community but is already a downtown favorite. Located in a historic building that once housed a local feed and seed store, the Greer Cazbah is creative fusion of old and new. Restored tin ceilings and exposed brick walls make a perfect backdrop for plush booths, slick tabletops, and ultra modern decor. And the crowning glory of our new location? A rooftop bar and dining area where guests can relax and take in the view while enjoying good food and great company

Happy Valentine's Day!! Enjoy some PAMA!!!!

 

PAMA^® captures the complex, sweet yet tart taste and seductive ruby color of all-natural pomegranates.

PAMA is made with all-natural pomegranate juice, premium vodka and a touch of imported tequila. Bottled at 34 proof, PAMA is highly mixable in a range of cocktails such as PAMA and Champagne, PAMA Cosmo and the PAMA Mojito. PAMA’s versatility gives you endless PAMAbilites.^™

No fruit compares to the pomegranate. The deep crimson color; the dense pulpy flesh; the rich red juice; even the time of year when it ripens – all of these singular characteristics, along with the tales of mystery and romance woven around it, make the pomegranate rare and unequalled.

The pomegranate has come a long way since the beginning of time, revered throughout history as a symbol of health, fertility, and rebirth. It is believed that the pomegranate may have been the “apple” in the Garden of Eden. Ancient Greeks believed it was a symbol of love and war. Another Greek myth tells how Hades, god of the underworld seduced Persephone with a pomegranate.

The fall harvest offers a freshness and juiciness within the tempting fruit that cannot be experienced any other time of year. The pomegranates chosen for PAMA are selected at their peak for ripeness and flavor.

Try a: PAMA-tini today!!

Ingredients:

2         oz. PAMA Pomegranate Liqueur

3         1 oz. Premium Vodka

4         1/4 oz. Orange Flavored Liqueur

Join our 'Bartender of the Month" at Travinia Italian Kitchen

Established in Greenville, South Carolina on August 1, 2002, Travinia Italian Kitchen now proudly serves six locations including AIken, Asheville, Greenville, Lexington, North East Columbia and Myrtle Beach with two locations to come in the D.C. Metropolitan including Leesburg VA - opening in the Fall of 2010 and Woodbridge VA - opening in 2011.

For owners Mark Craig and Kevin Cox, the dream began after a visit to Napa Valley. It was there they decided to combine the love of food with their passion of wine. From this vision, Travinia Italian Kitchen was born. The ever-changing handcrafted Modern American Italian menu and the owner's handpicked selection of wines make every visit a memorable one. All served in an atmosphere of comfort and style.

They also own and operate four Casual American Grills known as Arizona Steaks Chops and Seafood. Established in October of 1995 by the Arizona Restaurant Group.

Arizona's has been involved and helped support

Pendleton Place

for children for the last 13 years as well as the Mac Foundation through their established Arizona's Childrens Charities for the last two years. They host and sponsor an Annual golf tournament each year to help these individual causes.

Since their first tournament in 1999, the Arizona Open has raised over $850,000 to help support the programs and services of Pendleton Place Children’s Shelter. Both Mark Craig and Kevin Cox created and toyed with the idea of combining their love of golf with their love of giving — thus, the Arizona Open! Throughout the past ten years, many have joined our team, creating what is now considered one of Greenville’s leading charity events.

In our 11th year, The Arizona Open will continue its tradition of not only protecting children who cannot protect themselves through Pendleton Place Children’s Shelter, but also will now reach out to other non-profit organizations/foundations, making a significant impact in the lives of children — this year we have added The MAC Foundation.

THE STORY

Hi. I’m Tito Beveridge and I’m the founder and owner of Titos Handmade Vodka. I’m from San Antonio, Texas. I went to Vanderbilt for a year then to UT, University of Texas at Austin. I graduated with degrees in geology and geophysics. I got into the oil and gas business and did that in Texas and then down in Venezuela and Colombia and ran heli-portable dynamite seismic crews down there and came back and started a drilling company in Houston, got tired of chasing the buck and decided to move back to Austin, TX.
I did ground water geology here and got in the mortgage business and it was when I was in the mortgage business that I started making flavored vodka for my friends for Christmas presents. That was in about i guess ’92, ’93. I was at a party one time and a stranger came up to me and said ‘Hey you’re the vodka guy’ and I was like no, contraire, I am the mortgage guy. And that’s when I kinda started thinking that this guy’s telling me i need to go sell my flavored vodkas and this was the first time I really started thinking seriously about it.
So when rates went up a couple points in the mortgage business I started going to liquor stores and ask guys if they’d buy my flavored vodkas, they said “no, go look at all the dust on the shoulders of those bottles there”. Then they said but if I could make it where it was smooth where you could drink straight then I might have something. So I asked them how you do that and they said “Well I don’t know, you’re the guy who wants to get in the vodka business.”
At that point I went and started trying to learn about how to distill and you know it was pre-internet and so there really wasn’t any information about how to make it. It was almost like there had been a book burning at the library. I got a bunch of pictures of old moonshiners and looked at a bunch of those photos and then kinda from looking at all those photos kinda just built a still that kinda looked like those stills. And then just kinda started cooking in that and just trial and error’d. I just kept messing with it until I got to where everybody liked my vodka better than the other stuff you could buy at the time. I basically just kinda kept working at it and working at it.
We bought every vodka that was on the shelf, we put them in little kerr jars and tasted all and came up with the two best ones. When mine beat the other two best ones then I figured that I had my formula right. My friends were all kinda my guinea pigs.
I tried to get some financing a couple of times and it didn’t work out because they said i’d never get my permits, there’d never been a legal distillery in Texas and they said I’d never get a distributor. So I ended up just taking the money I’d saved up while working overseas and I racked up 19 credit cards to the tune of about $88,000. I built a one man distillery and built a production still and just kinda got myself into business. I’d go out and make it and sell it and come back and make some more and you know I was sleeping next to the still and you know just kind of boot-strapped it up.
And then at one point we’d gotten a phone call to come to the World Spirits Competition and I was fixing a boiler so I just sent a couple bottles there and we ended up getting the double gold medal, the unanimous judges choice. And that was up against 72 vodkas around the world including flavored vodkas. That kind of you know, helped spur things along.
I appreciate ya’ll supporting Tito’s Handmade Vodka. It’s really been a dream come true for me and it’s really due to all the word of mouth that we’ve gotten. It’s all pretty much just been from people going into liquor stores and bars and asking for it. So if you are in a bar and they don’t have it, ask to speak to the bar manager. Our distributors are on our website at Titosvodka.com. If you tell 20 of your closest friends we’ll just keep this thing rolling. Thanks a whole bunch, I try to make it good. You know my theory is you make the best vodka in the world and charge a reasonable price, so I’ll keep doing my part of it and I sure appreciate you doing yours. Thank you very much.
-Tito
