How do you follow up one of the most acclaimed modern classic cocktail books of all time? By writing a modern book about classic cocktails, naturally. Toby Maloney and Emma Janzen sit down to talk about their new book “The Classic Cocktail Sessions” which Toby almost considers a prequel to their first collaboration “The Bartender’s Manifesto.” They talk about their creative process (including who’s a stricter editor), how the hospitality industry has changed since their first book, and why underrated drinks like the Hurricane and the White Russian deserve more respect than they get.

PLUS, Greg’s running a promotion! Post a pic of yourself with a fresh bottle from Workhorse Rye or Modern Ancient Spirits AND Violet Crown Spirits, tag him and the podcast, and he’ll send you a free bottle of Quiote Imports Agave Nectar.
