AT PLAY BOY CLU B LO N D O N
VIN TAGE COC K TAIL S
Here is my selection of old classics created by
some of the founding fathers of the cocktail world.
I have sought out vintage products as close to the
originals used that I could find to give you a true
taste of cocktail history, the ultimate experience
for the discerning cocktail lover.
VINT A G E COCK TA I L S
HONEY BEE
£275.00
This drink is a classic from the 1930s made with rum, honey
and fresh lemon juice. The recipe is taken from The Fine Art of
Mixing Drinks by David A. Embury, which called for
Jamaican rum.
For this drink the closest I could find is
J Bally Martinique Rum 1929.
WHITE LADY
£350.00
Created by Harry Craddock legendary bartender from the
Savoy Hotel, Harry took up residence at the Savoy in 1920
where he reigned until 1939, after being exiled by prohibition.
Harry immortalised his creation in The Savoy Cocktail Book
which he compiled in 1930.
For this recipe I am using Gordon’s Gin from the 1930s
and Cointreau from the late 1930s
and fresh lemon juice.
SIDE CAR
£350.00
This drink was made famous at Harry’s New York Bar Paris
during the First World War, served for an eccentric Captain
who turned up in a chauffeur driven motorbike sidecar. In his
1922 book Harry credits the recipe to ‘MacGarry’ the popular
bartender at Buck’s Club, London.
For this recipe I am using Hedges and Butler 1914
Cognac and a Cointreau from the late 1930s and fresh
lemon juice.
BRANDY CRUSTA
£425.00
The first published recipe for this cocktail appeared in 1862 in
‘How to Mix Drinks‘ by Professor Jerry Thomas, the esteemed
father of Bartending. The original Crusta was created at New
Orleans’ City Exchangein the heart of the French Quarter
by Joseph Santini in 1850, the first time that citrus juice was
introduced into the list of ingredients for a cocktail.
For this recipe I am using Monnet Cognac 1858 and
Dubb Orange Curaçao late 1860s and fresh lemon
juice, the drink will be served as Jerry Thomas specified
in a sugar crusted glass lined with pared lemon peel.
GIN COCKTAIL
£450.00
Another recipe from Jerry Thomas’ 1862 publication,
This is one of the very original cocktails. In 1824 there is a
published reference to a New York porter saying about his
dead friend that he was “the kindest soul that ever poted a
gin cocktail”.
The Gin of choice at that time was Holland Gin.
To recreate this recipe I am using Fogkink Amsterdam
Gin from the late1800s, Dubb Orange Curaçao from
the late 1860s, Angostura Bitters from 1915 and homemade gomme syrup.
OLD FASHIONED
£500.00
Although claimed as their own by the Pendennis Club in
Louisville, Kentucky founded in 1881, there are even earlier
published references, when the Chicago Tribune quoted a
prominent bar-tender as saying ‘The old fashioned cocktails
are still in vogue; cocktails made of loaf sugar and whisky...
Rye Whiskey is called for more than Bourbon. The first recipe
appears in a rare book entitled Bartender’s Manual by
Theodore Proulx in 1888.
To recreate this recipe I am using an old American preprohibition Whiskey, Angostura bitters from 1915 and a
lump of white sugar.
VINT AG E COCK TA I L S
SINGAPORE SLING
£750.00
The most commonly used recipe for a Singapore Sling bears
little resemblance to the orginal Singapore Sling created
by Ngiam Tong Boon, a bartender at the Raffles Hotel,
Singapore in 1915. Originally intended as a woman’s drink,
this long, exotic cocktail is now enjoyed by both sexes in
many bars throughout the world. The original recipe of this
legendary cocktail was a favourite of, among others, the
famous writers Somerset Maugham and Joseph Conrad.
To recreate that infamous classic we use New York Gin
c1910, Peter F. Herring Kirsebær (the predecessor of
the modern Cherry Herring) c1905, cointreau c1920,
benedictine c1930, fresh orange, pineapple and
lemon juice.
BACARDI COCKTAIL
£1250.00
This cocktail was discovered by the Americans in Cuba during
prohibition, it quickly became central to the cocktail’s golden
age. So much so that by 1936 the Bacardi Company went to
court to protect their prestigious brand, since then this drink can
only be made using Bacardi rum. The first published Bacardi
Cocktail recipe appeared in Drinks by Jacques Straub in 1914.
For this recipe I am using Bacardi from circa 1905 and
Grenadine from the1930s, home-made gomme syrup
and fresh lime juice.
SANTA CRUZ RUM PUNCH
£2,000.00
This drink is also listed within the pages of the Jerry Thomas’
1862 Bartenders Guide. Thomas’ recipe states a large measure
of Santa Cruz rum. As this rum can no longer be sourced we
use a St Croix rum of similar age. Both rums orginate from
neighbouring distilleries on the U.S. Virgin Islands.
These rums are truely unique and extremely rare.
St Croix Rum c1890, Jamaican Rum c1900, 3 dashes of
lemon juice, an orange slice and powdered white sugar.
SAZERAC
£2,500.00
This American classic is a sublime sipping drink. Legend has it
that its origins began in Peychauds Pharmacy, New Orleans
where Peychaud himself, a young Creole apothecary, would
serve a drink based on cognac mixed with his proprietary
bitters to treat stomach aches and other illnesses, the brandy
and bitters buzz caught on with Peychaud’s friends and then in
the coffee houses. In 1853 the Sazerac Coffee House opened
in a rough back street known as Exchange Alley. The Coffee
House made the brandy cocktail a rage and the ingredient that
gave it its name was the bar’s Cognac, exclusively imported
from France, Sazerac de Forge et fils. Around 1870 the
Cognac was replaced with Rye whiskey, probably due to the
phylloxera epidemic that devastated the European vines and
the production of Cognac, and a taste of Absinthe was added.
For you I will reproduce the original cocktail and use
a Sazerac de Forge et fils from 1805 simply made
with Peychaud bitters and sugar, an experience only
available to the privileged few.
SALVATORE’S LEGACY
£5,500.00
With this drink I wish to be written within the pages of history.
In accordance to the Guinness Book of World Records, using
some of the oldests bottles within my collection, I have created
the oldest and most expensive cocktail ever produced.
For this drink I use some of the world’s rarest spirits and
liqueurs. 1788 Clos de Griffier Vieux Cognac, Dubb
Orange Curaçao from late 1860s, 1770 Kummel
Liqueur and 1915 Angostura Bitter.
