PLCB spirits catalog changes for the week of May 4th:
Discontinued Products:
Another Slivovitz disappears! Is there a plum shortage in Europe??
Relisted:
What does a "Los Angeles"-flavored vodka taste like? Is it smog-infused?
According to the Absolut website, Absolut Los Angeles is an "aromatic blend of Acai, Acerola, Pomegranate, and Blueberry," inspired by "the city's trendy, environmentally forward, and health-conscious ideals." The website also lists a few recipes, including a highball which pairs Absolut Los Angeles with a mixer that is neither trendy, environmentally forward, nor health-conscious: Coca-Cola. Apparently this was not lost on them, as they named the drink the Ironic Angel.
New Products:
Nardini Mistra is yet another anise liqueur. Even the distributor's sell sheet calls it "typical" and "quite sweet".
