We explore the history of the Singapore Sling courtesy of Douglas Ford, genuine American rye whiskey as it’s made at the Catoctin Creek Distillery in Virginia, and the grubby glory of Ben Nevis Distillery in Scotland. Wayne Curtis takes us on an exhilarating ride through the history and lore of the Tiki canon, while Faith Willinger introduces us to ‘The Boss’, the world’s greatest distiller. We learn all about the cocktail’s most beloved ally and meet Madame Lafitte of Domaine Boingnères, making the best kept secret in spirits according to our publishers, who also offer up some of their old favourites and new finds in ‘Tasted’. Enjoy.
