What a night! Northwest Passages and welcomed NYT bestselling author Craig Johnson at the to kick off his tour for THE BROTHERS McKAY. We’ll have signed copies available on our shelves while supplies last!

The twenty-second novel in the Longmire series, The Brothers McKay is a murder mystery and a survival thriller that tests the sheriff’s hard-won sense of justice—all while paying sly homage to Dostoevsky’s classic.

Daniel Seddiqui will present his new book DRINKIN’ UP THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST at Auntie’s on Saturday, May 30 at 7:00pm. We hope you’ll join us! ☕️🍺🍷🍵

Most people associate the Pacific Northwest with its stunning natural environment, which seems to offer a glimpse of all the world’s beauty at one time, but the region is also renowned for its beverage scene. Truly the land of pressing, fermenting, carbonating, roasting, and brewing, this section of the United States is home to one of the world’s largest growers of apples and hops in the Wenatchee and Yakima Valleys, world-class vineyards elaborately decorating the hillscapes of Sonoma and Napa Valleys, a saturation of independent coffee shops and the hub of international coffee brands based in Seattle, and the imaginative microbreweries of Bend. And don’t forget the kombucha producers from the nonconformist city of Portland.

There’s a lot of ground to cover—and beverages to sip —in this region, and traveler extraordinaire Daniel Seddiqui guides readers on an immersive journey to discover the area and its beverage culture through hands-on experiences. Quench your thirst for adventure with an itinerary that includes

•fun activities, such as apple picking and farm tours;

•learning opportunities to discover how everyone’s favorite beverages are made;

•up-close guidance from the experts who craft the region’s iconic beverages and products;

•interviews with locals who provide insight into the region and its culture; and

•information on lodging and other attractions that travelers should be sure to check out along the way.

From Washington through Oregon and into Northern California, this guide helps adventurous travelers to drink up the Pacific Northwest. Cheers!
