WHY IS IT CALLED A PAPER PLANE COCKTAIL?
Crafted in 2008 in New York, the Paper Plane cocktail takes its name from the hit track “Paper Planes” by British Hip-Hop artist M.I.A., a personal favourite of its inventor, award-winning bartender, Sam Ross.
DID YOU KNOW?
The Paper Plane cocktail (usually featuring bourbon) was only invented in 2008, but we’ve added historical depth by using our 18-year-old blend.
