In the January/February 2024 issue, San Francisco bartender, bar owner, and author Thad Vogler shares his story of the Single Village Fix. Vogler first created this simple mix of mezcal, lime juice, and pineapple gum syrup for a bar menu in 2008, tying together his passions for agriculturally rooted spirits and simple, classic formulations. In the years since, the cocktail’s become not only a modern classic, but it’s come to epitomize San Francisco’s cocktail culture during the heat of the cocktail renaissance, and it’s also influenced Vogler’s own path forward as the owner of Bar Agricole.
