More About Whitebox x Idle Assembly El Presidente

The El Presidente cocktail was created in Cuba in the early 1900s and it's likely that it was named in honor of president Mario Garci Menocal. It was one of Cuba's most popular cocktails during the 1920s when many americans made the short trip to the pre-revolutionary Cuba to escape prohibition.

Meet the Producer, Whitebox Cocktails

Whitebox Cocktails

Style: RTD Cocktails

Ready-to-drink cocktails spent years trapped between disappointing supermarket cans and bartenders quietly judging them. Whitebox arrived and improved the situation considerably.

Founded in the UK, Whitebox focuses on full-strength classic cocktails packaged in small cans without trying to reinvent the drinks themselves. Negronis, Old Fashioneds, Martinis, Margaritas and Daiquiris all appear throughout the range, built around the idea that convenience does not necessarily require lowering standards.

The cocktails remain unapologetically strong. Rather than producing watered-down approximations, Whitebox leans towards proper spirit-forward serves that feel much closer to what you would expect from a decent bar. Pocket Negroni has become particularly well known, helping establish the brand among both cocktail drinkers and people who generally claim to dislike canned drinks.

Part of the appeal is restraint. The branding is clean, the serves stay classic and the focus remains firmly on execution rather than novelty.

Cocktail culture has become increasingly complicated over the years. Whitebox occasionally makes a strong case for keeping things simple.
