1. a layer of vegetation beneath the main canopy of a forest
The Understory of the forest is where the party is; between the canopy and the forest floor this layer, although devoid of much light, hosts an array of plant and animal life. In the spirit of this most exciting section of the forest Understory at Sky Deck hosts the most prolific collection of original cocktails and fine wine served to San Diego’s adventure seeking community.
Think a century ahead. Each decanter is the life achievement of generations of cellar masters. A blend of up to 1200 eaux-de-vie, 100% from cognac grande champagne.
