11 THE BOULEVARDIER

£69.00

We have the Prohibition era in the United States to thank for the BOULEVARDIER: American bartenders had to choose a new profession or leave the country. Prohibition led New Yorker Harry McElhone to London and then on to Paris, where he opened his legendary Harry’s New York Bar.

There he served pre-Prohibition drinks and new creations that he perfected with European ingredients, including the BOULEVARDIER, made from bourbon, Italian red bitters and Italian vermouth. This was the signature drink of his regular customer, the publisher of The Boulevardier magazine, and Harry published it in his recipe book in 1927.

Flavoured and garnished with a twist of orange peel, it’s served in a chilled tumbler.

Ingredients: Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Italian Bitters (with artificial colour), Red Vermouth (contains sulfites)

Boutique Box Includes: Our boutique box set comes in an elegant black presentation box with silver embossing, a 700ml ready to pour bottle of 11 THE BOULEVARDIER, including 100 % organic aromatic oils and atomiser, organic fruit peel and booklet with our hand crafted cocktail information.

Ironically, we have the Prohibition era in America and Harry’s New York Bar to thank for the BOULEVARDIER.
