St. Agrestis founders Louie and Matt Catizone and spirits expert Steven DeAngelo have gained attention for an innovative approach to non-alcoholic cocktails. While originally inspired by Italian amaro and aperitivi, the team expanded their vision to meet the growing demand for sophisticated alcohol-free options for the modern drinker. Their standout, the Phony Negroni, has dominated at San Francisco’s Ready to Drink competition since 2024. Crafted with the same bitterness and complexity as a traditional Negroni, but entirely non-alcoholic. Produced in Brooklyn, St. Agrestis bridges the gap between craft spirits and mindful drinking, offering zero-proof beverages that don’t compromise on flavor, ingredients or presentation.
