Reviews
"Martin and Rebecca Cate have managed to create an irresistible shrine to the magic of Polynesian pop culture. Beautifully designed and dripping in kitsch by way of photos by Dylan + Jeni, this is set to be the cocktail book of the summer." -- Punch "Your new tiki bible." -- Eater "A primer on essential tiki techniques as well as a thorough, authoritative guide to rum take you further than the typical booze book." -- Saveur "The book walks readers through the history of tiki, as well as 100 recipes for cocktails. Not sure where to start with rum? There's a beginners' guide. In other words, all you need are some paper umbrellas and your summer is made." -- Epicurious "A lavishly illustrated, seriously researched, 350-page tome with more than 100 recipes, along with a well-written history and sketches of some of the lesser known tiki lights." -- The Daily Beast " Smuggler's Cove isn't just a book of recipes--it's a guide on how to transplant a beloved bar into your home." -- Epicurious "A lively exploration of our country's drinking history (and the current tiki scene), it's essential reading for rum lovers, offering the best categorization of the headspinning-ly diverse spirit that I've encountered." -- Serious Eats "It's a must-have for any Mai Tai lover, Trader Vic's devotee or Hawaiian traveler . . . The book works equally well as a cocktail how-to, a rum guide, tiki party inspiration or must-do itinerary." -- San Jose Mercury News "Buy this book. It will bring you a little bit closer to paradise." --Wayne Curtis, author, And a Bottle of Rum: A History of the New World in Ten Cocktails "Tiki is simultaneously whimsical and sincere, simple and shockingly complex . . . This indispensable book explains it all--and is the definitive volume on one of the cocktail world's most fascinating and complex genres." --Jordan Mackay, wine and spirits writer, and coauthor of Secrets of the Sommeliers "The old guard of Donn, Vic, and Steve can rest easy now that they have this champion of their tradition bringing tiki into the new millennium." --Sven Kirsten, author of The Book of Tiki, Tiki Modern, and Tiki Pop "The Cates have written an engaging, knowing, and personal book that is sure to please tiki lovers, cocktail lovers, and especially tiki-cocktail lovers." --Jeff "Beachbum" Berry, author of Potions of the Caribbean "An absolute must-have for rum enthusiasts." --Richard Seale, master distiller, Foursquare Rum Distillery, Barbados "With Smuggler's Cove , Martin and Rebecca teach you everything you need to know to become a tiki-geek in your own right--and to see the world with their Polynesian passion." --Gaz Regan, author of The Joy of Mixology and The Negron i "Tiki culture is enmeshed with rum, and the authors offer a master class on it, covering its history and many varieties, as well as digressions on coring pineapples for cocktails and where to score cocktail umbrellas."-- Publishers Weekly , starred review, "Martin and Rebecca Cate are alchemists--Reyn Spooner-wearing, volcano-bowl-igniting, Polynesian-popping, double-straining, Aku-Aku swilling alchemists. Which is to say, they are the finest kind of alchemists known to walk the earth. Buy this book. It will bring you a little bit closer to paradise." --Wayne Curtis, author, And a Bottle of Rum: A History of the New World in Ten Cocktails "With Smuggler's Cove, Martin Cate did the impossible, folding up a whole rum-soaked sailing ship so that it would fit into a not-very-large San Francisco storefront. Now he's done it again, and taken that tiki bar--one of the very finest bars I know--and folded it up so it fits between the pages of a book. Just add rum, and watch Smuggler's Cove--and the whole vibrant, geeky, just a little bit unhinged world of tiki it so perfectly exemplifies-- unfold in your lap." --David Wondrich, author of Imbibe! and Punch "Tiki is simultaneously whimsical and sincere, simple and shockingly complex, which means understanding it can be challenging. This indispensable book explains it all--and is the definitive volume on one of the cocktail world's most fascinating and complex genres. But in the end, tiki's essence is based on captivating stories and exotic drinks, and Martin Cate's Smuggler's Cove is a tour de force in both." --Jordan Mackay, wine and spirits writer, and coauthor of Secrets of the Sommeliers "Martin Cate understands tiki like few others do. He not only knows how to ask the right questions; in this book, he also answers many questions that I didn't know I had. The old guard of Donn, Vic, and Steve can rest easy now that they have this champion of their tradition bringing tiki into the new millennium." --Sven Kirsten, author of The Book of Tiki, Tiki Modern, and Tiki Pop "Here at last are the secrets behind one of the world's best bars. The Cates have written an engaging, knowing, and personal book that is sure to please tiki lovers, cocktail lovers, and especially tiki-cocktail lovers. Abandon angst, all ye who enter here: like Smuggler's Cove itself, these pages take leisure time very seriously." --Jeff "Beachbum" Berry, author of Potions of the Caribbean "Martin Cate is an authority on rum, and this book will take your level of understanding of this noble yet complex spirit to a new level. Martin offers his own illuminating rum classification system, and also tackles controversial topics head-on, such as sweetening and the use of nebulous age statements. An absolute must-have for rum enthusiasts." --Richard Seale, master distiller, Foursquare Rum Distillery, Barbados "The twenty-first-century revival of tiki cocktails was spearheaded by a handful of passionate tiki-geeks, Martin Cate among them. With Smuggler's Cove , Martin and Rebecca teach you everything you need to know to become a tiki-geek in your own right--and to see the world with their Polynesian passion." -Gaz Regan, author of The Joy of Mixology and The Negron i "Martin and Rebecca Cate have managed to create an irresistible shrine to the magic of Polynesian pop culture.
