Review:

Peated whisky replaces mezcal in this riff on the bartenders' favourite M&M.

History:

Created by Asher Günther who, on Christmas Day 2022, left this comment on our M&M page; "I've tried this drink a few times and very much enjoyed it. Tonight I thought I'd try subbing the mezcal for the other smokey bottle in my cabinet - an Islay single malt. Oh man. Someone needs to give this a name and get it on a menu ASAP." I've tentatively named this delicious combo "Peaty Monte" but I'm sure somebody will come up with a better name.
