"...my favorite drinks book of the year is The Bar Book: Elements
of Cocktail Technique. Mr. Morgenthaler, a well-regarded Portland,
Ore.-based bartender and blogger, notes that a great cocktail
requires a combination of three elements: recipe, ingredient and
technique. He admits that the first two have been well-plumbed in
existing books, then lasers in on the third. Just learning how to
make his ingenious but simple "MacGyver Centrifuge" with
cheesecloth and a salad spinner to filter fruit juices is nearly
worth the cover price." - Wayne Curtis, The Wall Street Journal
"An accessible but sophisticated primer that could render the rest
of the cocktail library obsolete." - Library Journal
"Jeffrey Morgenthaler is our kind of guy; an obsessive
practitiioner of lost arts and an inventor in his own right." -
from Playboy
