The Aperitif Companion by Andrew Jones
Aperitifs have benefitted from the growing interest in speciality and niche drinks, from which "portfolio drinking" is evolving. Many different types of aperitif categories have strong visual images which are a central part of their appeal. This "Companion" is designed to provide information on a myriad of both well-known and more unusual aperitifs from around the world. It details a broad range of categories, production methods, ingredients and flavours, including: vermouth; bitter; aniseed; galiano; pineau des charentes; whiskies; tequila; aquavit; rum; sherry; and madeira. It discusses the history of aperitifs, and how and where different styles evolved. There is a comprehensive brand directory of the world's premier brands, together with tasting notes and provenance, and related features and fact boxes enlarge on various aspects of aperitifs.| SKU | Unavailable |
