Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of El Paso Chile Company Martini 101 - 1 kitCustomer Review: Don't Listen To The Negative Review Summary: 5 Stars
It seems like right now Amazon is getting rid of El Paso drink sets so they've dropped the price of the whole line. I've tried a couple of these El Paso gift sets at the vastly reduced prices for presents. I like them so much I kept one of each for entertaining. The martini has the lowest rating on Amazon and only one review. The others are highly rated. I can't figure why the martini set does not have more positive feedback. It's my favorite.The music CD has some great cocktail standards and some less obvious selections to keep it interesting. I like the olive design of the glass picks. The cocktail olives and onions are pretty typical and come in matching bottles. The drink guide is silly but might be useful to a novice mixologist. Likely your drunken guests will just look at the pictures! At the list price this is your typical gift set markup ripoff but at the reduced price you could not buy the raw materials in a market let alone add on a swing mix CD. I gave it five stars to offset the two star review and because at the reduced price you really CAN'T go wrong. At full price I might give it two stars too. Cheers.
