This week on the podcast, our host Becky meets Kirsten Jarin, brand ambassador for The London Essence, and Nate Brown, bartender and owner of cocktail bar Soda and Friends, where they discuss why dark spirits should be considered year- round.

In the episode, they deconstruct the myth that dark spirits are designed as a drink for the winter months and explore why they are sometimes forgotten as a great option to be enjoyed together with friends. They also have some top tips for some delicious, longer summer serves and the ultimate sharing cocktails.
