The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
I already featured the different Eversbusch Doppelwachholders here on the blog. However, Peter Eversbusch always is in search of new products. This time, he infused his regular juniper spirit with craft coffee from a local coffee roaster. Since I am always up for coffee flavoured spirits I was looking forward to trying it.
The number of blue coloured gins is steadily growing. While some well-know brands exisit, others are a bit harder to flnd. Today I thought I give one of the latter versions a try. With its deeply blue colour, the Tinte Gin really reminds me of ink. Let us see how it turns out in cocktails.
Right now rum from Fiji is kind of en vogue. This might also be the reason why Plantation released their second bottling from this small Island in the Pacific. I was a little bit indecisive as to which cocktail I wanted to make with the Isle of Fiji Rum. In the end, I found a […]
Of course, 2020 also has a Tiki Month and we want to start it off with a rather typical Tiki drink. Although, I have created a fair share of non-rum based Tiki drinks, it is also fun to get inspired by classic Tiki cocktails. This time it is all about a Missionary’s Downfall cocktail variation. […]
It is en vogue to distil a rum in Austria or Germany. Therefore, it is no surprise that David Gölles also has a go at the this sugarcane spirit. However, as always with David’s products he does not stop until his rum is the highest quality possible. Inspired by that I came up with a […]
The next bottle up for the One Bottle One Drink series in the spirits cabinet is Cynar. Since it has a distinct bitterness there are just people out there who either love or hate this Italian Amaro made from artichokes! Obviously, as a bartenders or cocktail enthusiasts you just have to belong to the first […]
I know I am a little late for introducing the new Plantation Xaymaca Rum. Nevertheless, I thought I would share my insights into this new ester forward rum! The special thing about this rum is already incorporated in its name ‘extra dry’. Apart from that, I also want to share a new refreshing recipe with […]
I admit, I am a Maker’s Mark fan! The bottle with the red way top was the first high-quality bourbon I ever bought and I still enjoy Old-Fashioneds made with it. Naturally, I was very excited when I first discovered the Cask Strength bottling here in Germany! So that I am now able to share […]
After a personal recommendation, I had to get my hands on a special bottle of Ferrand’s Plantation series: Besides their non-age-statement and vintage lines, Plantation also bottles rum from individual casks. The rum in question comes from Haiti, a country where I so far had only sample Clairin from. This means I had no previous […]
This is already the third spirit from the Eimverk distillery I am presenting to you! And I will be honest, I am very much in love with their products. They are unconventional and typically Icelandic. This means that if you are looking for a gin which complies to the standards you are completely wrong here. […]
