Is your mum your cocktail companion? If so, we have two terrific tipples from double Royal Warrant holder Berry Bros. & Rudd – from a smooth, creamy Crème De Banane liqueur, to an aromatic Cognac created with cocktails in mind.

Tempus Fugit
Crème De Banane
Naturally a deep mahogany, this extraordinary liqueur offers a soft, judiciously sweet, and honest nose with an intense note of caramelised banana skins. The palate offers sweet and sticky bananas with a whiff of menthol floating on a bed of banoffee, leading to a sweet and deliciously unusual finish.

H by Hine
A little quirky and certainly arty, H by Hine was specially created to be a base for cocktails.
With aromatic whimsical notes, the Coachella of cognacs is a vibrant blend of around over a dozen Grande and Petite Champagne eaux-de-vie, with the youngest in the blend being aged for at least 4 years. A whimsical take on a VSOP that revels in its versatility.
