Biba

Biba.

A new drink from Mario Kappes.

70 ml Doorly’s XO Barbados rum
25 ml Campari
1 Dash Fee Brothers peach bitters

Preparation: Stirred and served in a tumbler with a large piece of ice.

Yesterday, 19 September 2015, we had the pleasure of being guided through the evening by Mario Kappes at Le Lion in Hamburg. Our topic was drinks with Campari. We also had the honour of tasting an excellent pear brandy. To continue the pear theme, he created the Biba, the “Bitter Barbados” for us that evening.
Cheerio!

About

Hi, I’m Armin and I’m interested in the history of mixed drinks. I examine historical sources, scrutinise traditional narratives and try to present the development of our bar culture in as well-researched and accessible a way as possible. As a freelance journalist, I write about bar culture and focus particularly on historical and critical research. My articles are published in German and English. I value exchanging ideas with others who share this interest, as together we often discover more than any of us could find on our own. If you have any questions, would like to make a suggestion, or know of a source I should look into, I’d be delighted to hear from you. Even after thorough research, there’s always something new to discover – and I’m always keen to learn more.
