Craft - The Liquor Rooms
-1- Craft [kraft, krahft] -noun 1. an art, trade, or occupation requiring skill in making things by hand. Before your first sip, look into your glass. Here lie liquids that are the result of adventure, endeavour and honest hard work, the culmination of many a sleepless night and too numerous an early morning, failed attempts that almost broke the spirit and incremental improvements that ran from minutes to hours to days. Before this liquid touched this glass, there were many wasted efforts and as many precious angel shares. The liquid in your glass began its journey days, months, years and, in some cases, decades ago. From field to still, from cask to shaker, from our bar to your table. Ancient recipes, family traditions, researched methods, learned skills, the craftsman’s hard work is the imbiber’s good fortune. Amid the chatter you might take the chance to pause and reflect. As the drink is raised, the craftsmen hold their breath. Savour the moment and sup. They have waited years for this. Our craft is the cocktail: the most beautiful spirits, homemade cordials, lovingly crafted infusions, shaken, stirred, swizzled and thrown. Our drinks are created to answer all tastes. Light and crisp, fresh and fruity, strong and complex. Your bartender or server can be your guide, so don’t be afraid to ask. And remember no great discovery was ever the result of playing it safe, so try something new this time. Good health, good fortune, good liquor. -2- -3- DOC’S GIGGLEWATER {MartellVS – TLR Rosemary & Lemon Cordial – Soda Water} A generous dose of rich Cognac combined with house made Rosemary & Lemon Cordial. “A Doctor McGillivray prescription.There is no sore it will not heal, no pain it will not subdue!” Bubbly & Fresh {€9.50} THE FULL REGALIA † {Plymouth Gin – Apricot Brandy – TLR Hibiscus Syrup} Our house made Hibiscus Syrup takes centre stage between gin botanical and sweet apricot. “She turned to the sunlight and shook her yellow head, and whispered to her neighbour:“Winter is dead.” Floral & Fragrant {€9.50} GRAND BUDAPEST SOUR † {AbsolutVodka – Drambuie – Griotte Kirsch – Black Pepper} A delicate cocktail of Cherry Kirsch and honeyed sweetness with a lingering cocoa finish. “To M.
