Hoefling Brian D. - The Cocktail Seminars - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: As a senior at Yale Brian Hoefling realised that his classmates were about to enter the real world with an imperfect knowledge of how to order prepare and enjoy cocktails. To remedy this dangerous deficiency he devised and taught The Cocktail Seminars. In his subsequent career as a cocktail teacher and writer Hoefling has developed and refined The Cocktail Seminars into the present book. Each of the five seminars herein (from beginner to advanced) covers 30 different drinks which are arranged so as to progressively introduce the ingredients of mixology as well as its history and its core principles - souring bittering sweetening aromatising drying lengthening and mouthfeel. Problem sets and exams challenge readers to apply what they ve learned to the creation of new and variant drinks. Those who are less serious about their cocktail education may also consult The Cocktail Seminars for drink recipes as needed or display it as a handsome accessory on their bar cart - but they are only robbing themselves of a brighter future through the gift of education. The Cocktail Seminars is handsomely bound in vegan leather and furnished with all the charts and photographs one would expect from a proper textbook. It will make an excellent gift for all but teetotalers.
