Especially for Mother’s Day, R&B Distillers is teaming up with Bourne & Hollingsworth Buildings to concoct a delicious spring cocktail using R&B’s new Borders whisky.
Whisky is too frequently shrouded in tartan and the assumption that it is a man’s drink to be sipped by the fireside of antiquated gentlemen’s clubs. Well, the Ma-jito proves those assumptions wrong!
2016 is the year for whisky to shed the baggage of tradition and R&B’s Borders Single Grain whisky is dry and complex but with a lightness that works well in a cocktails.
Likewise, B&H’s sweet and fruity ‘Ma-jito’ (£9.50) is set to convert even the most sceptical whisky drinker into ardent fans.
