2022 Oscars Nominee Swag Bag
Highland Titles
Highland Titles was created to help conserve Scotland “one square foot at a time.” Nominees can become Lords and Ladies of Glencoe when they receive a gift sized plot of land that they can actually visit at any time.
An assortment of delicious Bahlsen Biscuits will also be included in this year’s swag bag. Their premium chocolate biscuits and wafers are sustainably sourced and crafted in Germany, and each pack comes with 10 biscuits for recipients to indulge in.
Byroe
Nominees will receive a carefully curated gift set from Byroe, which is a women-led skincare brand that uses their platform to give back and empower women. The nominee gift set includes best-sellers like the Bitter Green Essence Toner, the Tomato Serum, and the Salmon Cream.
Whipped Drinks
This kit contains everything you need to make the perfect whipped coffee at home in just 60 seconds.
Opopop
Opopop created the world’s first Flavor Wrapped Popcorn kernels where each kernel is individually “pre-wrapped” in flavor. Some of their most popular flavors include Fancy Butter, Cinnalicious, Maui Heat, and Lightly Salted, and nominees will get a chance to try these tasty treats.
Held in the intimate upstairs Conservatory at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, the celebration brought together some 150 of SAVEUR’s closest friends and family—from past and present editors, contributors, and staff to chefs, beverage professionals, and producers who’ve graced the pages over the years. Additionally, the event welcomed our Grand Tour premium subscribers, whose support was vital to the print magazine’s return.
On the food front, guests grazed on diaphanous country ham slices by Lady Edison, a bounty of artisanal Wisconsin Cheese, and a caviar spread by Browne Trading Co. complete with chives, potato chips, and blini. Also floating through the crowd were bite-size caprese salads, sesame-tuna sashimi tacos, and smoked salmon pâté, supported by Baldor and South Jersey Smoke House and prepared by the team at Café Carmellini, chef Andrew Carmellini’s new fine-dining hotspot in the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
Midway through the evening, Craddock took to the mic to thank sponsors and attendees and herald SAVEUR’s triumphant return to print publishing. “We hear a lot about how print is dead and how no one wants magazines anymore—and I think we are well on our way to proving them wrong,” she said.
Sold out online (but still available through several of SAVEUR’s retail partners), Issue 202 is the first print edition since the magazine was discontinued in 2020. The new cover features Lebanese cook Olga Bacha, with other stories ranging from artichokes and baijiu cocktails to Japanese artisans and eating on the moon.
