HKB Spirits
We're skyping with one man who quit his day job to make Chinese liquor! Charles Lanthier is a Frenchman who lived in China for several years and while there was exposed to baijiu for the first time. Charles quit his international management career to find a baijiu distiller whose blend would appeal to Western palates, and after visiting more than 15 properties hit upon a small producer in Sichuan province. The result is HKB, a highly mixable, modern baijiu created for daring mixology. Excellent in modern or classic cocktails, HKB has been embraced by leading mixologists in New York, California, Italy, France, the UK, and even our area!
