The World's 50 Best Bars Brands Report 2015: Cocktails

Here we look at the brands used by the World's 50 Best Bars in cocktails.

There is nowhere to hide in a Dry Martini. Gin is either palatable straight with a few drops of vermouth or not.

Many are not, but Tanqueray – particularly Tanqueray 10 – is comfortable no matter how naked.

Thirty-five of the 100 bars polled agree. Team Plymouth is 15 bars strong.

For a Negroni bartenders are looking for power to punch through the Campari and Tanqueray wins again – 27% of bars use it, to 21% for Beefeater.

It’s the same pair for Tom Collins, though Hayman’s runs Beefeater close.

But the Pernod brand is preferred for the Singapore Sling in 26% of bars, edging out Tanqueray to second, the choice in 20% of bars.
