On Wednesday, scotch whisky producer The Glenlivet announced the launch of a game-night-themed collection in collaboration with renowned designer, interior decorator and potter Jonathan Adler.

The collection, dubbed the “New Fashioned Game Night,” comprises Adler’s essentials for a night in: Leopard Lacquer Card Set, Eden Coasters and a Rocket Scotch Decanter.

“There’s nothing I love more than a night in with good friends, an even better game, and a superbly ‘scaped bar cart to elevate your hosting skills,” Adler said in a news release. “The cornerstone of my cart is The Glenlivet – it’s iconic, iconoclastic and it announces to your guests that you have impeccable taste. The Glenlivet even inspired my New Fashioned Game Night Collection, so you have everything you need for a glamorously chic night in.”

The collection, which is a part of The Glenlivet’s “Break from The Ordinary” campaign, is available now for a limited time, priced at $310 exclusively on JonathanAdler.com.

Jonathan Adler’s Hosting Tips

In addition to designing the collection, Adler contributed tips for hosting a night in.

  1. Tunes? Top 40. No need to edge toward the esoteric. The number one song is number one for a reason!
  2. For décor, make sure it’s not a bore. Make it memorable. Life’s too short to look back and see an endless haze of beige.
    When it comes to food, K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid!). Nobody wants a reduction of this, a foam of that, or an artisanal anything. You know what everybody loves? Cheese. Say “oui” to charcuterie.
  3. As for drinks (arguably the most important part), I like to mix it up – both literally and figuratively. Keep it simple enough to DIY but also, don’t be afraid to try something new – that’s why I love The Glenlivet. It’s the perfect spirit to elevate all your favorite classic cocktails, or get creative with a custom themed recipe like the Dealer’s Choice Old Fashioned.
