I haven't had the chance to read that by Sam. I've heard about it though and its in my list of things book to check out.

Well, now that I know that is what you're wanting to do with the CSS certification; its perfect for being a rep. Brand managers are cool; some are dicks. i dont know exactly what their jobs entail other than going to bars and ordering drinks with their brand in it.

my suggestion if you wanna become a rep? actually know how the spirits are made, the CSS Cert should help with that. I've delt with some reps that couldn't tell me how the fuck whiskey is made but he felt qualified to tell me all about how great "the Devils Cut" is. he was a douche. Don't be a douche.

I love books. (pic related, its my bookshelf; the wife is a chef)

My favorite books for booze are as follows; in no order.

The Essential Cocktail by Dale Degroff
The Savoy Cocktail Book by Harry Craddock
Imbibe! by David Wondrich

All of these have a lot of history about the drinks in them. Savoy is real old school but a lot of badass information in it.

Stay away from those books that are "1000 Shots" or '8219 Cocktails for the summer" Bushleague Bullshit.
