The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
The folks from Kirsch Whisky were so kind to send me the current Distiller’s Edition of the Brewdog Lone Wolf Gin. On top of that, I also received a sample of Vietnamese rhum. Since, the gin has exotic fruits as extra botanicals, I thought to combine them both in a Sour suitable for late summer!
Nowadays, a lot of countries produce excellent whisky. Australia is no exception to this. So, I was very excited to try the Starward Line-Up in a blind tasting organised by Kirsch-Whisky. All in all, the whiskies did not at all disappoint!
So, it is the limited gin editions season again. This year, Brewdog weighs in with a new flavour combination for their regular Lonewolf Gin. In this case, the Distiller’s Cut is flavoured with lime and two of the hottest chilli peppers in the world. Since this somehow reminded me of Mexico, I decided to come […]
As promised here is my variation of the Naked Ape cocktail. Instead of banana liqueur, I chose lychee liqueur as the “exotic” fruit flavour in the recipe. Well now, do not be afraid the resulting drink is not an over the top sweet cocktail with a whole armada of fruit juices thrown into it. Instead, […]
You probably noticed that this Tropical Month I am very focused on the Jungle Bird cocktail. I guess this is due to the fact that it combines Negroni-notes with tropical flavours. However, today I guess the drink tends more towards a “bittered” Mai Tai. Furthermore, I used a high-ester rum which was forever on my […]
When doing the Brewdog Spirits tasting in Summer, the Zealot’s Heart Gin lastingly impressed me. So, I had to give it another try and mix some cocktails with it. Of course, most people would just mix a Gin & Tonic with it – which I also did. However, I rather went for a White Negroni […]
I do not completely recall where I picked up the idea for a mandarin Negroni, but I instantly knew that I had to come up with a recipe for it. So, when I found myself in possession of a “flavoured” vodka from a boutique distillery, I thought I give it a try in this drink. […]
Aaand we are back to gin! However, this time I am pretty excited to present this bottle to you, not that this would not be the case when I am writing about other spirits. But it was quite some time go when I first discovered the Cotswolds Dry Gin in a British online shop. Now […]
I know, the spirits I am presenting to you this time are not really new. Still, they are worth taking a closer look! Also I want to show you that there are other great spirits to discover besides gin. In this case, we are going to talk about Clairin, a type of rhum agricole from Haiti, […]
Despite the theme for this month is cognac, there again are so many new gins out there that I cannot help myself, but share my tasting notes with you. This time it is all about gin from just one distillery. However, do not be disappointed, with Eden.Mill every gin lover out there will find a […]
