Empirical Olive
Elevate your martini.
Split Empirical Olive with vodka or gin and stir with a touch of extra dry vermouth for the Empirical Olive Martini. Delicious, consistent and ready in seconds. Or get creative and add a savory note to an Olive Negroni or an Olive Highball.
Olive features a smooth French wheat base, layered with the green, herbal and nutty profile of Gordal and Manzanilla olives. Not briny, but a balanced umami: round on the palate, with notes of dark herbs, cut grass and a lingering olive-oil finish.
Empirical Stonefruit
Make your coffee cocktails unforgettable.
Shake Empirical Stonefruit with vodka, espresso and coffee liqueur for a spectacular Stonefruit Espresso Martini, or bring it into a classy Mind Eraser. For something lighter, the Stonefruit Tom Collins adds a soft, fruity depth to the classic.
Stonefruit opens with a beautiful bitter almond and marzipan aroma, lifted by the tea-like fragrance of marigold, then moves into a gently juicy, tannic mid-palate. The finish is soft and warming, with notes of pastry dough and vanilla, like frangipane tarts in grandma's kitchen.
Empirical Cilantro
Make your margaritas stand out.
Split Empirical Cilantro with tequila or mezcal, then shake with orange liqueur and lime for the Empirical Cilantro Margarita. Top it with Fever-Tree Yuzu & lime mixer for a crisp, citrus-forward highball in the Cilantro Yuzu & lime, or explore a different flavor profile with a Cilantro Chocolate negroni.
Cilantro brings a bright citrus bouquet and a pop of garden-fresh herbs, then finishes dry and mineral, with hints of fennel and green tomato. Tomatillo evokes the flavor of the stem, lime brings out the green notes of the leaf, and a touch of vinegar ties everything together.
