A buzz button liqueur created with undisclosed neutral spirit, freshly picked and shipped buzz button flowers, cinnamon and vanilla and sweetened with agave. The result is a Bavarian pretzel flavor in the front of the palate, a nice warming spice mostly of cinnamon in the middle of the palate and a slightly bitter finish. The lingering characteristic of this spirit is the tingly-numbing sensation that is characteristic of buzz buttons flowers.

Black Pepper Syrup
Black Pepper Syrup is a great way to add a pre-balanced spice to a cocktail. Easily made with peppercorns, water and cane sugar, it captures the mellow spice and savory dustiness in that you recognize in the upper part of your palate.
1 Tbs (10g) Black Peppercorns
8 oz (240mL) Filtered Water
.5 Cup Granulated Cane Sugar
In a saucepan, combine 1 Tbs of Black Peppercorns and 8 oz of water over medium heat. Allow to come to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 30 minutes. Strain out the black peppercorns and while still hot, over simmering heat stir in the sugar until dissolved. Allow to cool to room temperature and pour into a syrup bottle.

Salt/Saline
Salt/Saline is a great flavor booster. It can balance sweetness and bitterness, smoothing out a cocktail. It can also enhance citrus flavor and acidity without the need for more acid.
A pinch of salt can be added to the cocktail, but for consistency, saline is easy to make and allows more control.
To Make It:
2 oz (60mL) Distilled or Purified Water
1 Tbsp (15g) Fine Sea Salt
Combine in a jar and shake vigorously. Once salt is dissolved, pour into a dropper bottle.

Activated Charcoal
Flavorless, slightly gritty and black.
Activated charcoal is made from charred coconut husks making it one of the best additives to a cocktail to make it black. Use of black charcoal in cocktails has fallen in and out of favor in the cocktail community and it is advised to educate yourself on whether or not you would like to add it to your cocktail as its only effect is visual.

This is Spinal Tap
This Is Spinal Tap plays like a case study in brand management failure, following a once-profitable heavy metal enterprise as it struggles to stay relevant in an increasingly competitive entertainment market. A documentary crew shadows the British rock group through a U.S. tour plagued by shrinking audiences, operational blunders, merchandising misfires, and a leadership structure that appears to have no meaningful governance. The band's persistent belief that success is just one louder amplifier away becomes a satirical lesson in the dangers of ignoring market signals and overestimating product differentiation. Meanwhile, backstage conflicts, revolving-door personnel, and spectacularly poor strategic planning steadily erode shareholder value—if Spinal Tap had any shareholders left. By the closing credits, the film has transformed a rock mockumentary into a surprisingly sharp commentary on how ego, weak management, and an inability to adapt can send even an iconic brand into decline.
