Isaac – Bib & Tucker Six-Year-Old
For the next drink in this series on American Whiskey cocktails, I made a Boulevardier variation. Additionally, I drew some inspiration from the White Negroni to come up with a kind of combination of the two drinks.

Steal My Sunshine – Magnifica Extra Premium
If there is a spirit I am regularly neglecting here on the blog, it is Cachaça. To change that, I gave the Magnifica Extra Premium a try. On top of that, I came up with an Old-Fashioned variation which was really delicious. Although probably no one else can recreate it…
Home Bar Awards 08/22 – Hey Snow White
The Home Bar Awards Challenge for August is all about cocktail mash-ups. So, I decided to randomly chose two drinks of the Difford’s Guide’s World’s Top 100 list. Luckily, with the P*** Star Martini and the Rum Sour I got two quite good draws. So, let us find out who the mash-up turned out!
Child Prodigy – Cava de Oro Plata
I thought I would make it a hat trick and write about the third tequila drink in a row. This time it is all about a great blanco tequila in combination with White Negroni variation. With a little extra in the form of a strawberry pepper bitters.
Troubled Mind – Villa Lobos Blanco 55 %
The next drink I want to present to you comes from my long list of cocktail ideas. Every time a flavour combination pops into my head, I write it down. So, there is a list of 200+ cocktails I could try. To lower the amount of cocktails on that list, I started going through it […]
Figure 8 – Spiritus Rex Montana Nera
You know what they say: Better late than never! However, this time I am over half a year late. Nevertheless, I am presenting a rather special Margarita variation to you. Basically, it is a Fig Margarita, but the fruitiness comes from a fig eau de vie and some fig liqueur.

Blue Hours – Michter’s Sour Mash
As a roundup of our lates American Whiskey tasting, I decided to mix cocktails with at least some of the whiskeys in the tasting. The start of this little series marks a drink inspired by the local cuisine of the Northeast. All of that resulted in a kind of Old-Fashioned variation using the Michter’s Sour […]
Writer’s Minor Holiday – Jameson Crested
If you are lucky enough, your best-man excels at planning your bachelor party and you find yourself on a surprise trip to Dublin. Obviously, we had to hit all the famous drinking spots. One of the best experiences of the trip was the visit the old Jameson Distillery. Therefore, I also had to buy a […]
Rest My Chemistry – Rest & Be Thankful MM
We are continuing with another colourful and tropical cocktail! This time I played around with a new, funky Jamaica rum from independent bottler Rest & Be Thankful. As for the cocktail, I am working through my backlog of cocktail ideas. As it turned out I had a nice combination with unaged Armagnac on hand.
