With its history in apothecary Peychaud’s Bitters has a strong authentic flavour which was originally dispensed as a medicinal tonic. Of course, the signature cocktail with Peychaud’s is the Sazerac but the subtle yet spicy flavour makes it a great choice for a wide range of cocktails from Old Fashioned to Whiskey Sours and the overriding flavour in each sip is aromatic cloves. Known as a great all-rounder Peychaud’s can be mixed with virtually anything to create a complex flavour profile.
It hardly needs introducing, it’s one of the stalwarts of the drinks cupboard! Bell’s Blended Scotch Whisky brings together the earthy flavours of many of Scotland’s finest single malts creating a blend which is improved by oak cask maturation. Rich and familiar, the taste of Bell’s is like a loyal friend and the welcome nutty flavours teamed with notes of spice are infinitely enjoyable. The eight-year maturation process guarantees a round, warming flavour.
The tantalising combination of hot pepper cactus and prickly pear is delivered by this smooth and velvety liqueur. Surprisingly spicy, hot and peppery, it’s a liqueur which you may want to pop in with your sparkling wine for a peppy aperitif. Despite the heat it’s tempered by the natural sweetness of the prickly pear which is refreshing and helps bring the white hot heat into control, especially welcome if drinking neat.
