There's 365 days in a year, and a cocktail for each one.
Words such as “handcrafted” and “artesian” and “small batch” can often be chalked up to clever marketing tactics. After all, there’s often times a good chance that your “small batch” whiskey isn’t actually small batch. Several articles have even been done on the fact that a good number of “micro-distilleries” actually buy a product from […]
We tend to take our whiskey pretty seriously here at Cocktails, 365. After all, before the site ever began we simply started out with a couple of bottles of just about every whiskey you could imagine, and a couple of gins for Jenn. It wasn’t until this little project started and grew legs that other […]
So, we were legitimately fascinated when we first came across information about The Botanist. You see, it was using terminology that we have more often come to associate with scotches more than gins. Which stands to reason, actually, at The Botanist comes from the Bruichladdich distillery along the Rhinns in Islay. Scotch is their bread and butter. In fact, their scotch […]
As we head into the end of September, that also means we approach the opening of another show at the local live theater, Depot Theater Company. This particular production of The Mousetrap is being directed by my wife and Cocktails, 365 executive editor, Jenn. That means that I’m in charge of the cocktail menu for […]
Back in 2003, the Wall Street Journal declared Hendrick’s Gin the best gin in the world. Yeah, sure, it’s nice to have that accolade from the WSJ. However, they haven’t received that unique honor from Cocktails, 365 have we?!? Well, now we have. We are telling you now. Hendrick’s Gin is the best gin the world. […]
Here we are again with another ultra-premium base spirit. And while we’re not sure if we’ve just been listening to Watch the Throne too much lately (it has been on repeat in the test bar essentially since it came out), but the next two week’s came in a package that would make Kanye and the […]
For an entire year we didn’t even touch upon tequila. There’s actually a very good reason for that – cheap tequila tends to be terrible. There are things you kind of say “Okay, the cost isn’t worth it for the taste difference.” Tequila is not one of those products. That’s not to say that every single expensive […]
In my day-to-day job I spend a lot of time enveloped in new interactive technology; finding ways to connect my clients with customers, and how they can work to tell their stories in fascinating ways. There are countless benefits to this – when you stay up on the newest tech you can always (or at […]
Two vodkas in a row? Well yes, actually. It’s not because we just happen to be on a vodka kick (we are, as it’s warming up here). It’s actually because the past two liquors (Van Gogh and now Zodiac this week) were gifts from friends. They caught wind of our new format and seemed happy […]
Editor’s Note: We were having issues getting this posted on its Friday date. However, it was written up and to be posted on Friday morning. Okay, two weeks down and we’ve crafted a good amount of cocktails. The best ones found their ways onto the pages here at Cocktails, 365. The ones that weren’t so good will […]
