The Little Book of Champagne
Originally served at the coronations of French kings, Champagne is now popular around the world and sales increase year on year as people discover this delicious, delightful, de-lovely drink. Although Champagne only comes from a small area, there are many producers, ranging from the globally famous houses such as Dom Perignon, Mo禱t & Chandon and Taittinger to the 19,000 vignerons who produce on a much smaller (but no less delicious) scale. Champagne has its own vocabulary, etiquette and special place in popular and culinary culture and The Little Book of Champagne traces the history of the drink from its early years to the present day and examines what makes Champagne so special. We delve into the intricacies of chilling (very cold), pouring (one inch, let the bubbles settle, then two-thirds) and drinking (slowly). There are also fun facts, quotes and sayings relating to Champagne's unique position in popular culture. So pop that cork, fill your glass and slowly sip your way slowly through the pages of this joyful celebration. SAMPLE QUOTE: "Why do I drink Champagne for breakfast? Doesn't everyone?" - No禱l Coward SAMPLE FACT: The oldest Champagne producer still in existence is Ruinart. They started production in 1729.

Kokuteeru
Finding and translating Kokuteeru (1924) was a year long journey that helps to answer the question "who wrote the first Japanese cocktail book?" Whilst this honour goes to Tokuzo Akiyama's book Cocktails: How To Mix Drinks, Yonekichi Maeda's Kokuteeru is considered to be the more systematic and practical text which was published a month later. Western style spirits and bartending made their way into Japanese culture as early as 1872. And by the early 1900s Japanese bartenders ran their own Western style establishments. Kokuteeru gives us a fascinating glimpse as to how 1920s Japanese bartenders began to define themselves and their profession.The entirety of the net profits-100%- from the publication of this English translation of Kokuteeru will fund the Yonekichi Maeda Scholarship: an internship program that will send Australian bartenders to Japan to learn about Japanese bartending. This scholarship will allow the next generation of Australian bartenders to learn the art of Japanese cocktail bartending and will promote a return of the 'journeyman bartender' to the education scheme of the bartending profession.

Take a raucous romp through the essential stages of fashioning cocktails and learn the hows and whys of bartending with acclaimed mixologist Toby Maloney and the team from The Violet Hour.

First, dive deep into the mechanics of creating cocktails with the right balance, texture, aroma, and temperature. From there, Toby goes well beyond the fine-tuned mechanics of the craft, covering how to kickstart the creative process and bring professional-level complexity and sophistication to drinks. Additional essays offer insider intel on how to offer top-notch hospitality (at the bar and at home), find comfort in the everyday rituals of the craft, and spark surprise and curiosity in the process. With detailed insights into The Violet Hour's greatest recipes, expert tips from bar alumni, and helpful step-by-step illustrations and photographs, readers will come away with a deeper understanding of what makes the bar's training program so legendary, plus the superpower of creating imaginative cocktails that reflect their personal style and creativity.

A classic among literary scholars and tea enthusiasts.

Wine
Wine: An Introduction for Americans by M. A. Amerine and V. L. Singleton brings clarity and authority to a subject too often obscured by romance, mysticism, or narrow focus. While countless books promise to guide the novice drinker, many either entertain without informing, intimidate with arbitrary rules, or drown the reader in technical detail. Amerine and Singleton--two of the most respected figures in American enology--set out to provide what had long been missing: a comprehensive, factual, and accessible introduction to wine written from an American perspective. Their aim is not to prescribe rigid dogma but to explain principles, correct misconceptions, and open the world of wine to informed enjoyment. With particular attention to U.S. production practices and California's central role--responsible for nearly 90 percent of American wine--this book situates American readers within their own marketplace while also surveying the global traditions that give wine its richness. Technical explanations are balanced with cultural context, enabling readers to understand not only how wine is made but also how it is used and appreciated. The authors emphasize facts where available and considered judgments where necessary, while offering carefully selected references for those who wish to explore further. Wine: An Introduction for Americans remains a landmark text: a clear, reliable, and inviting guide that demystifies wine and empowers readers to approach the subject with both confidence and curiosity. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1965.
