Sorry for exploiting bourdain, but perhaps it'll get better readership?! :biggrin:

This is an interesting article.

Michelle Hunt, founder of The Martini Club, calls people like d'Entremont "cocktail curious." As drinking cocktails has become a bona fide hobby, nearing the legitimacy of oenology or scotch snobbery, they are the new foodies -- "drinkies" perhaps -- with the same kind of mob rule. One year, the lichee martini is all the rage; the next, it's the caipirinha. Since the possible mixes are infinite, it's a hobby with great legs.

Toronto's The Globe and Mail full article here.

Cheers!
