Master Bartender Approves, November
9, 2003
Reviewer: Casey C. Taylor (see more about me) from Luling, Texas
As a certified Master Bartender and (purist), I am honored to recommend
Mr. Embury's book, and recommend it indeed on several levels. The details
and attitude are all there. This is basic and pure mixology. I have used
this book as text to train over forty bartenders, some I'm sure have served
you well. I have three copies and will probably buy what more I can find,
only to give them away and share in the invaluable knowledge therein.
Read this book, and may you never more suffer an intolorable, insipid
cocktail again. |
