The Seattle Times - ON THE AFTERNOON of the new moon, I walk into a Capitol Hill bar where people are opening small bags of dried herbs. It’s not what you think. This is Tavern Law, before doors open, where the bartenders are having a “drop party,” making tinctures to spice up winter cocktails. The curvaceous wooden bar is decorated with coriander, cloves, cedar, orange peel, fennel bulbs and dill fronds.
