Oak & Eden Rye and Rumba Whiskey

Oak & Eden

Presented by Oak & Eden

If you’re looking for the perfect spirit to take you from hot summer nights into cool fall evenings, then look no further than Oak and Eden’s Rye and Rumba whiskey. Best described as Rye whiskey meets Caribbean rum, this is unlike any of the current whiskeys in your cabinet. Oak and Edens’s second small-batch expression is made from its award-winning whiskey, which is then aged for two years in charred American Oak barrels. Then, a rum-soaked spire of wood is placed in to add sweetness and complexity. The result is a spicy-yet-mellow drink that pairs perfectly around the campfire or at home after a long day’s work.

Roomba j7+

iRobot

Robot vacuums are getting smarter and smarter. And the latest Roomba from iRobot, the j7+, might be the smartest so far — especially if you’re an animal owner. The j7+ uses PrecisionVision Navigation to avoid obstacles in its way, especially animal feces, a problem that other robot vacuums have had in the past. Over time, the robo vac will learn what parts of your home need more cleaning and what floor obstacles to avoid. With the latest software update, the iRobot Genius 3.0, the j7+ comes equipped with new features such as Clean While I’m Away, which uses your phone’s location services to determine when you’ve left your home so it can start cleaning; Quiet Drive, which makes the vacuum as quiet as possible when you need some cleaning but also some quiet time; and Cleaning Time Estimates, to give you a ballpark estimate of how long a cleaning session will take.

Great Jones The Whole Grain Family & Spoon Rest

Great Jones

Great Jones’ latest release is a trio of wooden cooking utensils, dubbed “The Whole Grain Family,” comprising a ladle, spatula and slotted spoon. To accompany the new utensils, Great Jones worked with one of our favorite pottery brands, East Fork, on a limited-edition spoon rest so you can keep all your messes off the counter. The spoons are made in India, and because of the lasting effects of COVID-19 in the country, Great Jones is donating 20 percent of proceeds from first month of sales of the utensils set to help with local relief efforts.

Everlane The Chore Apron

Everlane

Everlane in a roundup of home gear? That’s right since the retailer released an apron, inspired by its Chore Pants and Chore Jacket. (It seems that throwing “Chore” into a product name for Everlane means something has lots of pockets.) The apron is made of 8.6-ounce cotton twill, decked out with a chest pocket, two front pockets and a loop for a towel or rag.
