Monin and Hine introduce a Summer-Cognac-Cocktail-Case

Cocktail mixdrink specialist Monin teamed up with Hine Cognac: They launched a case full of ideas, a perfect cocktail set for this hot summer.

Very interesting. The whole cognac world is mad about the cocktail trend. Summit think-tanks, events and US Rappers presenting pineapple cognac drinks at the swimming pool..

Here comes Hine

Hine actually had quite a good idea, in a way. It is available at the french beverage retail chain Nicolas: The customer will find one bottle of H by Hine in the case and 5 smaller bottles for mixing: Pamplemousse, Mint, Violette, Strawberry.

It’s a good idea because Hine also knows about the “cognac problem”: Old image, digestiv, expensive. But as a cocktail, it works! So this case basically includes a good deal of options – mixing a the youngest, cheapest Hine Cognac (VSOP quality) with those fruity juices.

  • add lemonade, and an orange slice

Thanks for correcting us: The H by Hine is indeed a VSOP grade.
