Stoelzle’s Perfect Spotify Pairings

Bourbon and Whiskey

Whiskey popularity has always had its place in the world of spirits, but bourbon has grown its presence outside of Southern US states and expanded as far as the UK. Look to brands like Never Say Die, the first English bourbon, distilled in Kentucky, aged over the Atlantic and matured in England. Stoelzle proudly produces the Never Say Die bottles at Stolzle Flaconnage in Knottingley, UK.

We suggest pairing this bourbon with a traditional favorite cocktail, the Mint Julep. The cocktail recipe dates back to the 1800’s and the famous Kentucky Derby. While you sip on this concoction, listen to the tunes of Dierks Bentley (song: Bourbon in Kentucky), Louis Prima and Keely Smith (song: One Mint Julep), or George Thorogood & The Destroyers (song: One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer).

Gin and More

The rise in gin popularity might be partially attributed to the growth in many craft gin manufacturers, particularly in the EU and UK. When it comes to gin cocktails, we think of classics such as Gin and Tonic, French 75, Negroni, and the Gimlet, among others. We’re happy to make some refreshing suggestions, such as Galloway Forager, a recipe featuring our Stoelzle Flaconnage customer Hills & Harbour (Crafty Distillery). Another option is the La Rosy Winter, a sophisticated option from our customer Comte de Grasse N44.

Music-wise, you might think of classics such as Snoop Dogg’s Gin and Juice, or Amy Winehouse (song: You Know I’m No Good). Add some of our team’s favorites to the list: KISS (song: Cold Gin), Lied von Los Lobos (song: I Got Loaded), and Oasis (song: Cigarettes & Alcohol).
