Paddy Drinks: The World of Modern Irish Whiskey Cocktails

The folks behind the world-renowned, award-winning Irish pub, Dead Rabbit, know a thing or two about whiskey, and about making great whiskey cocktails. To start, you need to understand the flavors of whiskey, which means going to the very beginning—at the distillery. With an illustrated guide of the stages of production and the differences between the various styles of whiskey, plus flavor wheels and tasting notes, you’ll be well equipped to create your own drinks utilizing various Irish whiskey brands and styles before getting into the Dead Rabbit’s ever-creative, innovative cocktail recipes. With a foreword by the authority on cocktails, David Wondrich, Paddy Drinks is as serious about its whiskey as it is a celebration. 

“The crew from New York’s Dead Rabbit shakes up striking concoctions to highlight the Irish spirit’s ‘gloriously subtle and distinctive’ traits… A working-class liquor reaches rarefied heights in this top-shelf guide.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
