Luxury, limited-editions & big time sensuality

Boy oh boy, have we got a packed episode for you and the key words are: Luxury, Limited-edition, Sensualism and Secret Hideaway…

The luxury comes in the form of our first product, Komos Anejo Cristalino tequila while the limited-edition is Le Clos Series, Batch #5 from our friends at Takamaka rum in the Seychelles.

Sensualism is courtesy of our book choice, The Maison Premier Almanac: Cocktails, Oysters, Absinthe, and Other Essential Nutrients for the Sensualist, Aesthete and Flaneur. And as for that hideaway, it’s the underground gem of a bar that is Archive & Myth.

One other word to add to the mix is legend, as in our interview with one of the most respected and influential people in the drinks world, Simon Ford, founder of Fords gin.
