Bénédictine is a staple for many a bar, and indeed possibly your own collection. It’s also been a well-known brand for over 150 years, and has recently been showing off its versatility within cocktails with a number of cocktail competitions in many major cities. So it makes sense to capitalise on the growing hype andContinue reading “Bénédictine Tasting Notes”

Quina-Fina Tasting Notes
I’ve featured two brands from New Zealand on my site in the form of Lighthouse gin and Broken Shed vodka, but now there’s a great accompaniment in the mixer category in the form of Quina-Fina. Quina Fina can take its inspiration from the history of tonic water. You may or may not know, but tonicContinue reading “Quina-Fina Tasting Notes”
Bowmore
Bowmore is a brand that is well-known to not only the whisky enthusiasts of the world, but recognisable to even the most amateur of whisky drinkers. It’s location on an island that holds no fewer than eight distilleries means that it has to produce the best it can on a constant basis. And I thinkContinue reading “Bowmore”
Auchentoshan Tasting Notes
Auchentoshan is unique within the Scottish whisky world for one reason, it is triple distilled. That may not mean a lot to you, but with every other Scottish whisky only twice distilled, and triple distillation found more commonly within the Irish whisky production, it puts Auchentoshan under its own sub-category. It’s probably why then whyContinue reading “Auchentoshan Tasting Notes”

Finland is known for building some of the worlds biggest cruise ships, phone giants Nokia and a vodka that has a presence in many a bar – Finlandia.

This past Thursday saw the eighth meeting of the Manchester Whisky Club, held at The Castle in Manchester. Just like last month, a theme was the order of the day, and as we had covered Ireland, Scotland, Japan and the USA, it made sense to take look at some of the lesser known whisky producing countriesContinue reading “Manchester Whisky Club Review – August”
Blossom Syrups
Syrups aren’t the most well advertised when it comes to the use of them within a bar. But the thing is, they should be, because they could make or break a drink, and indeed your experience within that bar. So with this in mind, it makes sense to showcase a brand that have got someContinue reading “Blossom Syrups”
Siete Leguas
Since I started Drinks Enthusiast, my love of tequila has grown. Being able to try many a different brand and different styles, I’ve come to appreciate them more as I look into their history and methods. One brand in particular though I’ve been chasing for a while. For over a year I’ve been told byContinue reading “Siete Leguas”
