5 out of 5 stars Best of Absinthe.   December 20, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

My wife and I had a tradition of going to Absinthe in San Francisco before any major trip, or when one of us returned from a trip. We love their cocktails! This book gives the recipes for all their best. And a very well written, pretty book. Great gift. Now we live in Paris where they don't make a decent cocktail, so this is a lifesaver. Trust me, you will love their cocktails.


5 out of 5 stars An excellent incite into creating cocktillian style drinks   November 3, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

A must have for home bartenders that want to maintain a consummate menu in their bar. The book discusses unique ingredients, their uses, and even gives the recipes for various drinks served at the Absinthe Brasserie and Bar in San Francisco.

Why use Maraschino cherries in your bar when you can make homemade Brandied Cherries? Need to sweeten things up a little there are multiple syrups such as the simple syrup or even a balsamic syrup.

Don't be mistaken, this is neither a long read or an in-depth study of Mixology. At the same time, it is not just a recipe book without a soul. The gentlemen that wrote the book provided a perfect balance of ingredients to come up with a cocktail that they have proudly named "The Art of the Bar".

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED


5 out of 5 stars library of libations   August 6, 2007
The Art of the Bar: Cocktails inspired by the Classics, is a great book! If your a serious cocktail drinker this book is for you, great history on some of the most basic cocktails that all aspiring mixologists should know, as well as great recommendations on how to change, spice up and make some of the great mixers used in differrent libations. Although not strictly a recipe book this would be a great addition to any home bar library or on your coffee table. The photography and quality of this book really is great. Having been to their bar in San Francisco these guys definatly know their stuff.


5 out of 5 stars A Fabulous Book!   July 27, 2007
This book exceeded my expectations! The pictures, history, and recipies make for something I keep going back to often. Buy this book. It's like a wonderfully user friendly cookbook for cocktails.


5 out of 5 stars A great cocktail book!   February 7, 2007

Very professional mixologists who have an honest and organic approach to cocktails. There is a real discussion of the principals of ingredients and blending. IMHO this is as enjoyable in its own way as Degroff's "The Craft of the Cocktail."
