We would be happy to tell you all there is to know about our drinks and the stories behind them. DR OF JOURNALISM “I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.” - Hunter S. Thompson - Koch Oaxaca Mezcal Fresh Grapefruit and Lemon Agave Nectar Maraschino Liqueur A breakfast cocktail dedicated to Hunter S. Thompson. With smoky mezcal, Maraschino cherry and fresh grapefruit, it’s a well balanced drink perfect as the frist one of the day or as a breakfast substitute. - 120 - POLYNESIAN PEARL DIVER “Roscoe, a beer for the man with the beard, and I will have a Polynesian Pearl Diver. Do not spare the rum.” – Calvin Candie in Django Unchained Diplomatico Planas Blackwell Jamaican Rum Gunroom 12 Botanicals Gin Curvoisier VS Cognac Fresh Lime; Pineapple; Orange Fresh Ginger Juice Passion Fruit Syrup The Polynesian Pearl Diver is Calvin Candie in a drink, without the racism, a tiki style drink with an unlikely combination of gin, rum and cognac! - 140 - TRINITY OLD FASHIONED “There’s only one bartender’s diary for all of the 19th century, and most of that consists of the author drinking a lot and being sick the next day” - David Wondrich - Bufallo Trace Bourbon Asbach 8 Brandy El Dorado 12 Dark Rum Rum and Angostura Syrup Chocolate and Orange Bitters Three different spirits, three different bitters and our special rum and Angostura based syrup that we make in house. It´s strong, complex and some might say over the top. - 140 - SEX ON THE NILE " If you're going to steal, steal a camel and if you're going to love, love someone as beautiful as the moon. " - Egyptian Proverb - Thyme Liqueur Pomegranate Syrup Fresh Lemon Juice Plymouth Sloe Gin Campari Egg White Grapefruit Bitters Thyme and Pomegranate in ancient Egypt were both symbols of fertility and they were thought to have special powers of increasing libido. It also sounds like a delicious combination so the “Sex on the Nile” was born. It´s long, creamy and bitter-sweet. - 120 - RASPUTIN OF THE BRONX “He didn’t know that what he was drinking was wood alcohol and what he didn’t know apparently didn’t hurt him. He drank all the wood alcohol he was given and came back for more.” – New York Evening Post 1932 - Highland Park Viking Honour Suze Bitter Liqueur Spiced Vermouth Ardbeg 10 Scotch Orange Bitters The story of an Irish alcoholic in The Bronx is too good to forget so we dedicated this Negroni style drink to his memory. It is strong and boozy and not for the faint hearted. - 140 - Michael Malloy survived 20 attempts on his life in NY during the Prohibition era by an Italian group of gangsters called the “Murder Trust” as part of an insurance fraud. It is a truly twisted story that involved rat poison, methyl alcohol, hit and run, horse liniment, spoiled sardine sandwiches and raw oysters soaked in wood alcohol. Not only Malloy survived all of the above but he kept going back for more as he had an unlimited tab in the gangster´s speakeasy. Eventually he did give up when a rubber tube connected to a gas tank was shoved down his throat but he lasted for half an hour. Needless to say the Murder Trust´s plan didn´t play out as they hoped. After a quick funeral and a forged autopsy report, the gangsters collected the insurance money. Eventually the police heard the stories all over town and Malloy´s body was exhumed and re-examined. The Murder Trust didn´t have a chance to spend the insuance money. After a quick trial they were all executed in the electric chair. Unlike Malloy they only needed one try. SOME LIKE IT HOT “ I don't care how rich he is, as long as he has a yacht, his own private railroad car, and his own toothpaste. “ - Marilyn Monroe as Sugar Kane - Cinnamon Infused - Elijah Craig Bourbon Baker´s 53.5% Bourbon Pimento Dram Liqueur Cointreau Orange Bitters Inspired by the movie of the same name, our twist on the classic Blue Blazer. Served boiling hot, heavy on the cinnamon infused bourbon and it´s garnished with a flamed orange peel. Drink it while it´s hot but be careful with the fumes. - 150 - Osgood, I'm gonna level with you. We can't get married at all. - Why not? Well, in the first place, I'm not a natural blonde. - Doesn't matter. I smoke. I smoke all the time. - I don't care. Well, I have a terrible past. For three years now, I've been living with a saxophone player. - I forgive you. I can never have children. - We can adopt some. But you don't understand, Osgood. Uh, I'm a man. - Well, nobody's perfect. Osgood and Jerry/Daphne Transcript from Some Like It Hot SCARLETT “Happines makes up in height what it lacks in length.” - A Love Song For Bobby Long - Koko Kanu Rum Fresh Lime Juice Pineapple and Vanilla Syrup Fresh Pineapple Juice Named after Scarlett Johansson, this is a bartender´s version of a love letter. A different take on the Pina Colada, it´s sweet, fruity and refreshing with a coconut and salt rim. If you talk with Scarlett please send her to our direction! - 105 - GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER “ They should never give a license, to a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves. ” - Randy Brooks - Plymouth Sloe Gin Wray Nephew White Rum Fresh Ginger and Lemon Juice Red Wine Syrup Cinnamon Liqueur Dried Cranberry, Blueberry and Cloves A perfect hot drink for the cold weather, our own twist on the tradi- tional Gløgg. We combine Christmas spices with fresh ginger and lemon and light it on fire to make sure everything is boiling hot. Inspired by the Christmas song of the same name, it cures the common cold and 99.9% of illnesses. - 120 - CHING SHIH “A Chinese prostitute in a floating brothel became the world’s most successful pirate king.” Hibiscus Gin Sake Fresh Grapefruit Jasmine Syrup Fresh Ginger Lemon Juice Egg White Ching Shih had one of the most amazing life stories and dedicating a drink to her with exotic flavours and fresh fruits was just too obvious. It’s a sour drink with ingredients made in house, and the result is a candy like flavour with a smooth silky texture. She spent years with her 300 vessel strong “Red Fleet” smuggling and looting, taking on the biggest empires of her era. Surprisingly she survived and died rich and of old age. She ran a brothel and gambling house in Guangzhou China. - 105 - “Don’t bother with churches, government buildings or city squares. If you want to know about a culture, spend a night in its bars.” - Ernest Hemingway WILLY FUCKING WONKA “But Charlie, don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted… He lived happily ever after.” – Willy Wonka – Pure Green French Vodka Chocolate and Orange Bitters Orange and Lemon Juice Creme De Cacao Mint and Egg White We made the recipe, we called it Willy Wonka, but it didn´t fit our theme. Then we realized: Everything is cooler if you say it like a Peaky Blinder. When you order, make sure to say it like a Shelby, it will feel liberating - we promise! - 120 SOCRATES GONE MAD “I pissed on the man who called me a dog! Why was he so surprised?” Asbach 8 Brandy Plum Bitters Egg White Fresh Basil and Lemon Honey Barbera Red Wine A twist on the New York sour, a real classic dating back to the 1800s. Perfect for Whiskey Sour lovers with the addition of Mediterranean flavours. - 110 - DRACULA´S MOTHER “ Man has created God in his image which gives him domi- nance over everything else: Birds, lions, trees and women. ” - Elizabeth Báthory – Camomile Gin Campari Black Current Marmalade Cherry Heering Liqueur Peach Bitters Dubbonet Vermouth Served in a glass goblet, it is thick and deep red in color. It´s a perfect balance of sweet cherry, hints of camomile and bitter Campari. - 120 - A drink dedicated to Elizabeth Bathory, the “Blood Duchess”. The woman who inspired the original Dracula stories and countless fairy tales in 16th century Europe. The Blood Duchess was responsible for the killing of up to 640 peasant girls. At her trial witnesses spoke of “bathing in her victims blood” and “drinking blood to preserve her youth”. There were mentions of demonic ceremonies and witchcraft. Most of “witnesses” were of course local farmers so it´s probably not the most reliable source of information. Nonetheless the story of Dracula was born and Elizabeth made it into the World Guinness Records for “most prolific female murderer”. She was found guilty and she spent the last four years of her life bricked in a set of rooms in her castle.

  • Abstract Expressionism New York Inspired Cocktails
    Abstract Expressionism New York inspired cocktails Manhattan | £12.00 Canadian Club, Antica Formula, Angostura bitters Popular history suggests that the drink originated at The Manhattan Club in New York. It was invented for a banquet hosted by Jennie Jerome (Lady Randolph Churchill, mother of Winston). The success of the dinner made the drink fashionable and prompted guests to request it by referring to its place of creation: ‘the Manhattan cocktail’. However, Lady Randolph was in France at the time, and pregnant, so the story is likely fiction… or maybe not? Moscow Mule | £12.00 Sipsmith vodka, lime juice, ginger syrup topped up with ginger beer The cocktail was invented in 1941 by hotel proprietor John G Martin and by Jack Morgan of Cock ‘n’ Bull ginger beer. These two created their own ‘Little Moscow’ in New York’s happening Chatham Hotel. Sazerac | £11.50 Redemption Rye, Absinth, Angostura, Peychaurds bitters Some claim it’s the oldest known American cocktail. The defining feature of the Sazerac is its method of preparation which commonly involves two chilled old-fashioned glasses… The first glass is swirled with absinthe for flavour and scent. The second glass is used to combine the remaining ingredients with ice. It is then stirred and strained into the former glass. Millionaire | £12.00 Havana 3 year old rum, sloe gin, apricot brandy, lime juice, grenadine This is the original Millionaire Cocktail No.1 from Harry Craddock’s famous 1930 ‘Savoy Cocktail Book.’ Income Tax | £12.00 Sipsmith gin, Noilly Part, Martini Rosso, orange juice The origins of this cocktail are unknown, though some have surmised that taxes can sometimes be a bitter experience.

  • Askaneli Wines
    ASKANELI't; BROTHERS 1880 From the very beginning, we decided to not spare money or efforts on using the most current technologies and inviting the best industry professionals with international work ex- perience. It is extremely important for me to be involved in the creation of the modern history of Georgian winemaking. Our country prides with its huge range of endemic grapes, many of which have been lost or simply forgotten. Revival of ancient varieties has become one of the important components for our development and we are continuously working a lot in this direction. We cherish traditions, but don’t fear experimenting, searching for new tastes and imple- menting new technologies. Thanks to this approach, we have created new wines from smaller vineyards that have unique terroir. Contributing to the global winemaking, yet step by step we create our signature style. We want our wines to be exceptional and recognizable, to have individuality and certainly the Georgian spirit. Constant development and quality growth has remained the cornerstone over the 20 years Gocha Chkhaidze of existence for Askaneli Brothers company. President of Askaneli Brothers Askaneli Brothers started in the village Askana in the region of Guria west Georgia near the Black Sea. It is interestingly to note, that even the name of the village is related to the activities of Askaneli since the son of Aeneas descendant of Dionysus was called Ascanius. Legend would have been just a good story if not for the great grandfather of the Askaneli’s, Anthimoz Chkhaidze. There in the winery vault built by him lays a pitcher dated 1880.

  • Making Port Wine
    Making Port Wine Authentic red port may be made from many grapes, mainly Tinta Barroca, Tina Cao, Bastardo, Tempranillo and others. In California Zinfandel or even Syrah make fine ports. The technique below is universal, and may produce a Ruby port (aged in steel, glass or oak for two to 4 years), or a Tawny port (aged in oak, without topping for several years). Tawny port will lose color and may be blended with other ports to suit the winemaker. Technique: 1. Harvest late at an elevated brix (26 to 30 will do). This is to augment the short primary fermentation time and to maximize the fruit’s natural alcohol production. Fruit should be overripe, but no raisins. 2. Aerate the must well prior to and during inoculation. Choose the yeast carefully; select a yeast that is easy to kill with alcohol. Consider reducing yeast nutrients. Sulfite as normal. But bear in mind that the late harvest fruit is probably at a high pH which can will greatly reduce the effectiveness of sulfites. Color extraction can be a problem, so consider cold soaking (after sulfiting) and/or supplementing the must with OptiRED or pectic enzyme. 3. At 10 to 12 brix, juice should be at 9.5 to 10.5% abv (Alcohol by Volume). Once the juice reaches the target brix; say 11°, fortify the must or juice per formula below. Final alcohol content fo the finished port should be 18.5 to 20% abv. 4. Fortify with grape neutral spirits (GNS) at 190-proof (95% abv), or use aged or unaged brandy at 140-proof (70% abv) or above.

  • Chapter 9 Cognac and Armagnac
    Chapter 9 Cognac and Armagnac In This Chapter ▶ Finding out where cognac and armagnac are made ▶ Deciphering the designations on labels ▶ Getting familiar with the well-known brands ▶ Finishing a meal with a warm drink rance produces two kinds of brandy: cognac and armagnac. FBoth are named after the region in which they’re made, and both are delicious. Cognac Cognac can be produced only in the legally defined region of Cognac, France, located between the Atlantic and Massif Central — specifically, at the junction between the oceanic and continental climate zones. The region also straddles the dividing line between northern and southern climates. These four influences create a multitude of microclimates. In addition to the unique climate, the soil characteristics also foster a range of wine and, consequently, the cognac of each region. In 1909, the French government passed a law that only brandy produced in the “delimited area” surrounding the town of Cognac can be called cognac. How cognac is made The arduous, time-honored distilling and aging process is what makes cognac so special. The cognac you drink today was produced using methods dating back to the 17th century. The distillation of cognac is a two-stage process: 14_633120-ch09.indd 6914_633120-ch09.indd 69 7/26/10 10:50 AM7/26/10 10:50 AM 70 Part II: Short Shots from American Whiskey to Wine 1. A first distillate, known as brouillis, is obtained, with an alcoholic strength of 28 to 32 percent. 2. The brouillis is returned to the boiler for a second heating, which produces a liquid known as la bonne chauffe.
