Review

An late-night, spirituous cocktail to enjoy in place of an Old-Fashioned or Manhattan. The assertive character of mezcal means this cocktail also suits a fuller-bodied 'sweet' vermouth.

Jeremy Harrold
Simon’s notes are spot on…and why not!
A mezcal (and chocolate bitters) influenced drink which needs a vermouth with presence. Subtle hints of apple brandy break through. Time and dilution soften everything.
