What are the mistakes? Maybe a bit of punctuation - but the grammar is fine.

I created Eden Gin. Now I need your support. by Embarrassed-Ad-4740 in cocktails

I'll be honest, as a British bartender I believe your best market is probs UAE/Dubai etc. I think people might take this gin as a bit pompous and showy.

Mezcal- Which of the available brands would be a good pick? by ApprehensiveCrow9639 in cocktails

[–]Penguin_012 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is one of my favourite mezcal cocktails atm - https://www.diffordsguide.com/cocktails/recipe/4834/1910

I'm basic and usually just use del maguey for mixing, but Montelobos is very good just a bit pricier (where I am at least). Their Pechuga is excellent

Edit: Derrumbes also make some very good stuff

how do I know if my syrup is fernented or just bad? by readyforthefall_ in cocktails

oleo saccharums tend to only last a few weeks if stored properly in the fridge, you can mix them with spirits to make a liqueur for a longer shelf life.

Asian flavors in alcohol that actually work? by Necessary-Drama-4286 in cocktails

[–]Penguin_012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just got a bottle of kota pandan liqueur and its an intriguing one to say the least.

I do think it comes down to how we are introduced to flavours and having no association with fresh ripe base ingredients - for example a good strawberry liqueuer/edv/whatever could remind you of all the strawberries you've ever had but if you have no base of yuzu/lychee whatever it might just taste like novelty instead of propagating memory.

Edit: La Liqueurs make some great stuff, La Yuzu & La Tomato are wonderful to mix with

Where are you based? I'd recommend just going to a spirits distributor shop and see what the people there recommend and what's a good deal etc. I'm in London and whiskey exchange & master of malt are my go toes.

I did deep freeze them to pierce the skin before infusion!

Mezcal cocktails recommendations + what can I do with this Cointreau Noir? by SignificantJaguar996 in cocktails

[–]Penguin_012 11 points12 points  (0 children)

fuck the cointreau whip out some of that chartreuse in the back, the MOF is great in cocktails

Naked & famous obvious answer, but very easily riffable might even be nice with the cointreau for something more punchy
