This is the book I've been using. The title of the book is Kihon No Cocktail. Satoshi Kitamura is the author. It is originally a Japanese publication, then the text is translated to Chinese and published in Taiwan.About the author, he is a professional bartender working in Ginza and he is the owner of BAR Wine Museum (hope the translation is accurate).
What is so appealing is actually the picture of the drinks. We have to give credit to the photographer. And that's one of the reason I bought this book.
The other reason is the brief introduction to the materials he uses. Although to me he's half-advertising, half-instructing, the information got from this book is invaluable.
The only thing I wanna complain about this work is that there're some mistakes about the nationalities of some of the bottles. For example, he (or the editor, or the translator??) mistakes Hypnotiq as an American Product (it's surely French!!!). Also, Midori is no more a product from Japan; the melon liqueur is majorly manufacturing in Mexico now.
