Shaking the Can for a Martini
If you’ve ever had a cocktail from Batched Premium Cocktails before then you already know these guys have a pretty great range of curated small batch cocktails made with premium ingredients.
Usually contained within 725ml glass bottles they’ve taken the next big leap in RTD’s by creating Shake & Pour 240ml Espresso Martini Cans.
Crafted with their original recipe and premium ingredients, Batched combines rich espresso, smooth vodka, and a touch of sweetness, delivering a bold and balanced flavour profile. Simply chill, shake, and serve to experience the indulgence of a freshly made espresso martini without the hassle of preparation. I recommend doing this surreptitiously while also smuggling in the large martini glasses. That way you just look like the guy who turned up to a BBQ with a completely fixed Espresso Martini, complete with the velvety foam on top.
“Our mission at Batched is to make high-quality, craft cocktails accessible without compromising on flavour or experience,” said Sophie, Brand Manager of
Batched Cocktails. “The espresso martini is an iconic drink, and we’re excited to offer it in a format that makes it easy to enjoy anywhere, anytime.”
The new Batched Espresso Martini Can is available for purchase online and at select retailers nationwide.
Double Trouble
It’s time for India and Scotland to come crashing together into one single blended malt. Produced by Douglas Laing & Co as part of their Double Barrel series they have brought together four single casks, two from India, two from Scotland. This unique edition offers an exquisite fusion of Scotland’s rich peated Malt and smoke with India’s bright citrus and deep oak notes—a tale of two terroirs.
To represent this half the bottle features a hand drawn illustration of a Royal Bengal Tiger, the national animal of India, and the other a Unicorn, the national animal of Scotland. Only 2000 bottles have been produced.
