You know you will have better luck finding me on Twitter!
Here is what I am shaking currently :
Gin: Ransom Old Tom, Cadenhead Old Raj would be my ones for bespoke cocktails.
Rogue Pink Spruce (that + a little gomme syrup is really close to Old Tom), Whitley Neil, Brokers (house)
Death’s Door makes my absolute fav American artisan gin.
Rye : Rittenhouse 100, (out of) Templeton, High Mountain Rendezvous (latter two bespoke)
Sazerac, Old Overholt
Bourbon : Woodford Reserve, Buffalo Trace, Tuthilltown Baby (no bespoke right now)
Cognac : Remy VSOP
Rum : Smith and Cross, Sea Wynde, Angoustura 1821 (bespoke),
Mount Gay Eclipse, Appleton XV, Ron Zacapa
St George Agua Libre Aged (out, unavailable) is an incredible agricole style
Lemon Hart 151 is the only 151 worth anything. No US distribution, down to a wee dram.
Whisky : Red Breast, Laphroig Quarter Cask
Other stuff in heavy rotation : Luxardo Maraschino, Chartreuse, Carpano Antica (vermouth), St. Elizabeth Allspice, Batavia Arrack, Velvet Falernum.
Loving Bittermen’s Bitters, Trader Tiki Syrups
The other essential is proper ice cube trays to get small and large true cubes.
