With a degree in cuisine and after a few years in the restaurant business, Lucas Tubiana swapped his chef's hat for a cocktail shaker in 2013. He perfected the knowledge he had acquired in books by working with professionals, and went on to gain experience in some of the most renowned cocktail bars in Paris (Le Forum and Andy Wahloo), before joining a major Lyon-based group as executive bar manager. Now a consultant for a number of event and catering companies, he divides his time between France and Sweden.
The minimalist design, sharp color swatches for each ingredient, and tight recipe layout are the sort of treats that stand out when casually thumbing through this book in your local shop... With 100 cocktail recipes, there is something for every occasion and taste, keeping the reader immersed in learning the classics, along with discussions on the necessity of proper tools, ice, and learning how to cut garnishes correctly with precision. -- Rob Theakston * DrinkHacker *
