William Grant & Sons, the English distillery with Scottish roots, has a portfolio of brands such as Hendrick’s Gin, Reyka Vodka, Glenfiddich and Monkey Shoulder Scotch. Now the company has come up with Batch & Bottle: ready-to-drink cocktails in bottles, not cans, with top-shelf spirits. They’re not gimmicky or sweet, but straight forward classics like a martini and a cosmopolitan with a hint of rhubarb. There’s also a Scotch-based Old Fashioned and Manhattan, for a different riff on tradition.
Batch & Bottle, $15.78 to $19.99 for 375 milliliters (12.7 ounces), four to five drinks, batchandbottlecocktails.us.
