Celebrating Women in Beverage
MARCH 1 - MARCH 31
This Women's History Month, join us at Nubeluz as we celebrate the creativity of women in beverage with specials selected by our Lead Sommelier, Kara Daving. Each selection reflects the passion, dedication, and precision she brings to our beverage program.
With more than two decades of experience in New York’s dynamic restaurant scene, Kara brings her love for wine and hospitality to José Andrés Group as the lead sommelier at The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad. She curates the wine programs for The Bazaar, Zaytinya, and Nubeluz, collaborating with chefs, traveling with winemakers, and mentoring her team with a deep appreciation for the stories behind each bottle. Her evolving program highlights producers who shape each restaurant’s vision, ensuring depth, character, and a sense of discovery.
Kara is especially passionate about elevating female innovators in the beverage industry, including one of her favorites—Julie Macklowe.
A New York City businesswoman and entrepreneur, Julie was inspired by her expansive collection of the world’s finest whiskies to create The Macklowe Whiskey, the first luxury American Single Malt. Experience it in our limited-time Ancestral Old Fashioned—crafted with Macklowe Silver Edition Rye, cinnamon, and Peychaud's bitters—available all month long, only at Nubeluz.
