One of the best new whiskey books of 2014 - TastingTable.com

"In the cocktail movement, most cocktail books have ignored the whiskey drinker's palate, making us flip through pages of vodka, gin, and rum recipes before getting to a good whiskey recipe. In Whiskey Cocktails, Warren Bobrow did us all a favor. He makes cocktails with Scotch, Irish whiskey, Canadian whiskey, bourbon, Tennessee whiskey and a few others. Bobrow freshens up classic cocktail recipes and offers a few recipes that will surely become classics themselves. Finally, we, whiskey drinkers, have our own cocktail book to cherish. Thanks, Warren, for skipping all those other spirits. Whiskey Cocktails treats whiskey as the rightful king it is. - Fred Minnick, author of Whiskey Women: The Untold Story of How Women Saved Bourbon, Scotch & Irish Whiskey

"Warren has done it again. Whiskey Cocktails is a sublime journey of the senses with mouthwatering recipes and exquisite photography. Warren leads you on a historic and personal tour and keeps you reeled in with his graceful prose that emanates from the heart. An ardent sensualist, he approaches cocktails in the way an untarnished artist approaches the canvas—guileless, ingenious, and heartfelt. His cocktail compositions are true works of art that will stand the test of time. His commitment to sourcing unique, refreshing, quality ingredients to enhance his cocktails is second to none and it shows in the elaborate, delectable concoctions he wields." - Robert Sickler, Master of Whisky

"Before I made the drinks, I could already taste them. Warren's ability to articulate the subtlety of the flavors in his recipes makes possible tasting by reading." - Allison Goldberg, founder, Fruitations Craft Soda & Cocktail Mixers

"Warren Bobrow uses his great knowledge of mixing flavors to provide a book of extraordinary whiskey cocktails that will be enjoyed by all." - Michael Veach, bourbon historian, The Filson Historical Society (Louisville, KY)

      Bobrow (Apothecary Cocktails) is a devotee and demystifier of obscure spirits. His new title goes way beyond the Manhattan, with recipes for 75 creative concoctions including "Ulysses Left on Ithaca" and "Captain Swank's Sandwich Sippah." The book's breezy introduction explains that whiskey varies widely depending on how and where it's distilled, and it accordingly covers a range of spirits, from familiar rye, scotch, and Tennessee bourbon to less common white whiskeys and alternative grains. Yes, there's a fail-safe old-fashioned here, but also ideas for what to do with quinoa or millet whiskey, should that be what you have on hand. The book assumes that readers know their muddler from their strainer and their Angostura from their amaro, and is designed to be practical. Its spiral-bound pages fold flat to display the recipe and a photograph that's more for reference than admiration. That's a good thing: lots of these recipes run to five or more ingredients and can be tricky to visualize. VERDICT Both a challenge and an inspiration for the adventurous whiskey lover who's willing to grill pineapple, brew espresso, or hunt up yuzu syrup in the service of an unforgettable drink.--Joanna Scutts, Astoria, NY
