  • Holiday Cocktail Recipe: Test Pilot's Tiki Blinder
    HOLIDAY COCKTAIL RECIPE: TEST PILOT’S TIKI BLINDER At Test Pilot bar (testpilotcocktails.com) in Santa Barbara this recipe is made with a slushy machine. Co-owner Brandon Ristaino provides instructions for home bartenders to recreate the same effect with a blender. Hamilton Demerara is a Guyanese rum. If it is unavailable, Ristaino suggests substituting El Dorado 12-Year-Old Rum. The recipe calls for a highly acidic port. Another variety will work as long as it isn’t too sweet. Makes 1 cocktail ¾ ounce VSOP Cognac, such as Raynal ¾ ounce Hamilton Demerara rum ¼ ounce port, such as Ramos Pinto Reserva ¾ ounce Pear Cordial (recipe follows) 1 dash Abbott’s Aromatic Bitters 1 dash Cherry Bark Vanilla bitters, such as Bittercube 3 dashes absinthe, such as St. George Absinthe Verte ½ ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice 1½ ounces purified water Freshly grated nutmeg, for garnish Place Cognac, rum, port, Pear Cordial, bitters, absinthe and purified water for each serving into a separate sealable plastic bag. Freeze bags overnight. To serve, place frozen mixture and lemon juice in a blender and blend. Then pour mixture into a chilled cocktail glass, and garnish with freshly grated nutmeg. PEAR CORDIAL Ristaino recommends juicing three fresh Bartlett pears with skins on in a blender or juicer for the main ingredient in this cordial, but commercial pear juice can be substituted. Makes 16¾ ounces or enough for 21 Tiki Blinder cocktails 8 ounces Bartlett pear juice (from about 3 pears) 8 ounces granulated sugar ¾ ounce overproof vodka, such as Everclear Combine pear juice and sugar in a pitcher and mix thoroughly until sugar dissolves.

A real example of innovation with a wide range, not only of wines, but also of spirits and sparkling wines, importing and applying all the necessary methods, such as "champenoise". Antonio Guerra was a pharmacist and a real visionary, who was able to understand and value the potential of the vine- yards of Bierzo, far before the appellations, the architectural & design wineries, the wine tours and the poetic back labels even existed. Applying revolutionary winemaking techniques and marketing, when the term wasn't probably even invented, Vinos Guerra showed the virtues of the wines from Bierzo to the world. Wines produced with old vineyards of Bierzo, along the Pilgrim Way to Santiago de Compostela, on sunny slopes that conceal Roman and Visigothic treasures. An emotional marketing always combined with the quality of the many products of the winery.

  • The Atlas Collections
    THE ATLAS COLLECTIONS Dear Guests, Welcome to ATLAS - a labour of love that honours my grandfather, CS Hwang, the late founder of Parkview Group, and the beautiful space he created in which ATLAS resides. It is our hope that your experience at ATLAS reflects the passion and attention that has gone into every aspect of its creation. A grand and beautiful space, we invite you to unwind, enjoy, celebrate and indulge as our talented and dedicated ATLAS team makes you feel most welcome and at home. The ATLAS Collections feature two of the world’s most remarkable physical collections of Gin and Champagne. Building the ATLAS Collections was a monumental task which took over two years to curate and assemble. We are also delighted to feature a selection of rare and exceptional still wines and whiskies from my own family’s private cellar, which for the first time since its inception almost 40 years ago, has been opened especially for our guests at ATLAS. Building upon the modest collection of wines started by my grandfather, the Parkview Family Cellar found a permanent home in 1989 with the opening of the Parkview Group’s flagship property, Hong Kong Parkview. Initially consisting of a small collection of 50 bottles of right bank Bordeaux wines, the collection grew steadily under the stewardship of my uncle, George Wong, and his son Alex. By 2000, the collection was at 3,000 bottles and has now expanded beyond the right bank to other regions in France and the rest of the world. Currently, the collection stands at 50,000 bottles of fine wine and over 10,000 bottles of whiskey acquired through reputable merchants, auctions, and numerous trips to the wineries and distilleries where suppliers have now become close friends, ensuring that the family always has access to the finest and rarest bottles.
