The Handmade Cocktail Company is proud to present the Experimental Series that aims to bring a range of new exciting pre-mixed cocktails all for you to explore the world of Mixology.
The Boulevardier is essentially a fusion of two of the greatest cocktails of all time, the Negroni and the Manhattan. It is named after a literary magazine started in 1927 in Paris by a young American by the name of Erskine Gwynne. It featured up-and-coming writers of the day including Hemingway, Joyce and Coward. There was also a page dedicated to “Barflies and Cocktails”!
The concept of the ‘Vintage Cocktail’ range is simple – you get all the ingredients for a superb cocktail pre-mixed, all you have to do is pour it over ice, stir, then strain off into your glass and garnish (in this instance with a Maraschino Cherry). Each bottle carries a stamp showing its year of manufacture.
A big burst of sweet Bourbon with cranberries, glâce cherries and nutmeg.
The mouth-feel is soft with vanilla and goji berry flavours and a spiciness the tingles on the tip of the tongue.
The finish is perfectly dry and bitter with developing notes of stewed strawberries and raspberries.
The bigger Bourbon notes are brilliantly fused with red fruit flavours and herbal bitters to create this delicious cocktail.
