#18, Dale de Groff, King Cocktail, Maker of Bitters, Amaro & Aperitivo, and Author

The King is here!
Me and Dale de Groff taste the delicious new De Groff Amaro and De Groff Aperitivo he's made with Ted Breaux (who won't let Dale say what's in them), we talk about history's first-ever cocktail party with "gin and bitters", our biggest ever failings as bartenders and managers, why Freddy Heineken bought several former horse stables around Amsterdam, the importance of yumminess in cocktails, and the story of how Dale once had a fabulously wealthy six-foot-six regular who had to go home at 7pm each evening because he was already hammered by then.
And lots more.
Enjoy!

(PR friends: we’re only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things besides their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is.
They need to be able to hang.
Oh, plus we don't edit, and we won’t supply prepared or sample questions, or listener or “reach” stats, either, and no, you can't sit in on the interview or Zoom.)
