Whiskey, simply put, is the world’s most popular spirit. Whether you like bourbon, scotch or rye, whiskey’s diverse and complex taste has long been the go-to drink for parties, gatherings, or evenings in the study with a roaring fire for so many. However, whiskey can be an intimidating drink to the uninitiated. Whiskey Cocktails helps to navigate this fascinating libation.
Warren’s wonderfully crafted new book features drink recipes from noted whiskey experts and bartenders and features as diverse ingredients as Tennessee sipping whiskey, oat whiskey, absinthe, Indian whiskey and Teapot bitters. Each of the book’s recipes incorporate some of the best whiskeys into hand-crafted cocktails that bring out the subtle notes and flavors of any good bourbon or scotch.
Warren Bobrow, the author of Apothecary Cocktails and Whiskey Cocktails, and over three hundred articles on food, wine, and cocktail mixology, is hugely knowledgeable in the world of cocktails.
In addition to his popular blog, The Cocktail Whisperer, he writes for the Williams-Sonoma blog, Foodista.com, Voda Magazine, Saveur, Serious Eats, The Beverage Journal and Edible New Jersey.
Warren has taught social media and food writing at the New School in N.Y. as well as the Institute for Culinary Education. He is a Ministry of Rum judge and was the only journalist from the USA asked to participate in Fete de la Gastronomie 2012 in Paris.
