Fantastic selection of wonderful cocktails that would challenge many bartenders. Excellent guide for dinner party hosts using liquors in an interesting variety of

The Connaught Bar is rightfully considered one of the best in the world. I was excited to get this book, even though it’s better for reading and learning than it is for drink making. Some recipes require mixtures of custom mixtures. I’ll make some of these drinks for the fun of it, not because it’s easy.

It's a cocktail recipe book. Fine. What you really need is to visit the actual bar. It's awesome!

Such great recipes!

Great insight into the minds of one of the best cocktail bars in the world

Loved it

This is a nicely bound book. Fine photography. More useful as a coffee-table book. The story told in this book is not much different from so many others of its kind, but the difference between this book and the others is that this book has not one single recipe (out of 100 recipes!) that can be prepared by a home bartender. Soooo many house-made infusions and syrups...which is fine if you're preparing drinks on the scale of a world famous bar; not so much if you're making drinks for your own pleasure. This buyer has a home bar that is way beyond the scope of most home bars and I cannot make one single drink from this book without investing significant resources in the preparation of numerous infusions, syrups, tinctures and the like.
