Other Spirits

The first release in Pensador's Especial series! These agave spirits (they won't be classified as mezcal, as Pensador says though the classifications help to protect the rapidly growing mezcal industry, they can sometimes exclude some important parts of mezcal culture, including the independence of small producers and the historical context of the term) are limited edition releases, highlighting different agave types and producers from the region of Miahuatlán.

Batch PA1 was made by Felipe and Ageo Cortez using a one shot distillation method on a refrescador still, made with Tepextate agave. Intensely herbaceous, savoury, and delicious stuff.

Presented in its distinctive bottle, designed to mimic the traditional leather bottles most recently seen gracing the screens in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies clutched in Captain Jack Sparrow's hand, this is a great example of Bajan rum. Aged in ex-Bourbon casks for 10 years with now added sweetener, flavour or colour, just pure clean flavours of a top-notch rum.

Derrumbes' aim is simple; to take drinkers on a journey through Mexico's diverse range of agaves, terroirs and production techniques.

San Luis Potosi is a mezcal from the desert produced exclusively from the extensive wild agave Salmiana Crassispina that grows naturally in the High Plateau of San Luis Potosi. With not enough trees to support mezcal production, Maestro mezcalero Manuel Perez forages for dry Salmiana leaves and quiotes to use as fuel. The result is an incredibly unique mezcal that reflects the flavors of its surroundings like no other. This floral and herbaceous mezcal from the village of Charcas has just the right touch of sweetness to balance its delicate intensity.

The Jaime I brandy has been made with very old soleras aged from selected distilled white wines. Some of the soleras started off as distilled Parellada wines destined for our Torres 10 brandy, and which have been kept aside for many years to create a valuable reserve stock. These old reserves have been enriched with our best soleras, the oldest being 30 years old.

Porter's Gin, Italian Bitter Aperitif, Sweet Vermouth This bittersweet Italian classic is made of one part Porter's Gin, one part sweet vermouth and one part bitter aperitif. Best served ice cold, either straight from the can, or served in a rocks glass over quality ice with an orange peel garnish. Whitebox's negroni stays true to the classic recipe, proportioned precisely to be exactly one serve, including the dilution that you would get if you were in a proper cocktail bar. The Negroni is said to have been invented by the Count Camillo Negroni in 1919. While at Bar Casoni in Florence, he demanded that the bartender strengthen his favourite cocktail, the Americano, by replacing the usual soda water with gin. As bitter as it is sweet, it is a classic stirred down sipping drink, perfect both as an aperitif or digestif.

Tequila, triple sec, lime, coriander, chilli Tequila is at the heart of this punchy party starter, while bright green chilli pepper adds fresh, well-judged heat, and coriander seed lends depth. Serve well chilled in a coupe, or a rocks glass with ice and garnish with a lime and chilli.
