Opis

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

"To know how to drink wine belongs only to cultivated taste; to know how to tempt guests to indulge in it with pleasure belongs only to the host gifted with rare tact and artistic discrimination" This vintage volume contains a complete guide to cocktail making. With a vast selection of vintage recipes and a wealth of useful information, this timeless book will be of considerable utility to modern mixologists and bartenders, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature.
