I finally went a few weeks ago to the Brandy Library in Tribeca and instantly fell in total love....with their menu. I had the Peat Promise sampler and it definitely delivered. Some of the tasters were old favorites; Caol Ila 12 and Black Bottle (which reminded me I need to order it for the store) as well as some new scotches I hadn't tried yet including the Six Isles and Connemara cask strength. I want to work my way through all their samplers. It's a great way to learn about spirits. I highly recommend going there and trying something new (or old).
Monday was my birthday and gathered up my friends and head down there again. This time, my mission was their seasonal cocktails. The list is unbelievable and I had the best Mint Julep ever. Also had a delicious cocktail made up of bourbon and Rhum Clement (a really yummy rum that's infused with oranges and spices). Then there were all the drinks my friends ordered which I had to take sips off of. Such items as cognac muddled with fig, or highland single malt mixed with bitters. Whatever crazy combo they came up with it made sense in the end. If anyone wants to go...drop me a line. I still have a whole lot of drinking to do!
