New Years Eve 2024 - The Refined Imbiber
As the night slowly draws around you, the fireside crackles in your eye line as the warmth envelopes you and your friends. You chat over the year that's been, the hopes and dreams for 2025, and the crazy New Year resolutions you wish to make.
You reach for the spirits, wondering what refined delicious spirit to sip on as you mull the deep chat....
Ok rewind, let's get serious here. Theres much more you can do that a neat whisky or rum (although don't get us wrong, there's a time and a place for those as well), combining and balancing those flavours delicately and precisely to elevate your drinking game. Enjoy the cocktail touch to your night and raise the flavour profile of your late night drinks in our 18 favourite Late Night sips.
Of course we've included the classics such as the Old Fashioned, but also hopefully intrigued you with the Boulevardier or the Revolver. If you're after that slightly stronger slowly short cocktails, there's something here for everyone. Cheers.
