In the interests of keeping mountains for climbing and molehills for blog introductions, this post will be brief and/or a very small mound of dirt. We are two inveterate drinkers who (possibly in a fit of drunken grandeur) decided to start cataloguing our forays into the arcane art of mixology.

Here we will meander through recipes, muse over methods, and bastardise the hell out of drinking history and culture. We’ll even try to make sure a fair proportion of what we publish is true. One magnificent thing about alcohol is, however, that virtually everything said about it is subjective. This seats booze firmly in the company of all the great cultural institutions, and mercifully frees us from any ethical concerns on the odd occasion we tart up a post in the name of a good yarn.
