As a senior at Yale, Brian Hoefling realised that his classmates
were about to enter the real world with an imperfect knowledge of
how to order, prepare, and enjoy cocktails. To remedy this
dangerous deficiency, he devised and taught The Cocktail
Seminars. In his subsequent career as a cocktail teacher and
writer, Hoefling has developed and refined The Cocktail Seminars
into the present book. Each of the five seminars herein (from
beginner to advanced) covers 30 different drinks, which are
arranged so as to progressively introduce the ingredients of
mixology, as well as its history and its core principles - souring,
bittering, sweetening, aromatising, drying, lengthening, and
mouthfeel. Problem sets and exams challenge readers to apply what
they’ve learned to the creation of new and variant
drinks.  Those who are less serious about their
cocktail education may also consult The Cocktail Seminars for drink
recipes as needed, or display it as a handsome accessory on their
bar cart - but they are only robbing themselves of a brighter
future through the gift of education.  The Cocktail
Seminars is handsomely bound in vegan leather and furnished with
all the charts and photographs one would expect from a proper
textbook. It will make an excellent gift for all but teetotalers.
