Dr Onyx Tonic Speakeasy Espresso Martini
What do the Sex Pistols, Margaret Thatcher and the Espresso Martini have in common? Well, we dont know if all three were ever in the same bar at the same time, but we do know they all found fame (and some say notoriety) in 1980s London. There are several claims for the origin of the Espresso Martini. We cant think of a drink that better embodies the spirit of London. With many variations, this perfect recipe combines Grey Goose Vodka, Mr. Black Cold Brew Coffee Liquor, Espresso Coffee Extract, and sugar cane. Its an ideal cocktail for those who need an extra shot of life to make it through the night.Serving Suggestions:To serve, fill a cocktail shaker with ice, pour Dr Onyx Espresso Martini and shake vigorously. Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with fresh coffee beans.
Starward Whisky
Utilising centuries of knowledge and tradition, yet not restricted by it, Starward is the brainchild of David Vitale who set out to harness the very best of Australia's barley, barrels and climate to create the ultimate new world whisky. Years of experimentation, adjustment, trial and even more adjustment has created Starward, a whisky that will challenge your perceptions of what Whisky can be. Artisan Victorian barley is sourced to begin the bespoke process which ends up in aged Australian Apera casks that have been re-coopered, re-toasted and re-sized. All of which help create a Whisky of smoothness, sweetness and unparalleled complexity.
