Cocktails & Crime
by George Logue
Cocktails & Crime from Whisky & Ember pairs a well-made drink with a true story from the darker side of history. George walks you through the cocktail recipe and tasting notes, then shares a carefully researched story of crime, scandal, and the people caught up in it. The tone is conversational, the drinks are real, and the line between documented fact and disputed legend stays clear.
