History

Created in 2002 by yours truly and named after the rhyming slang for are you bloody sure? However, the Dictionary of Rhyming Slang claims 'bobby moore' means "door". Well, not in South London it bloody doesn't! And I'm bobby moore of it!

Just in case you're unenlightened, during the 1960s, Robert Frederick Chelsea "Bobby" Moore OBE (1941-1993) was the England football team captain, a national hero, and West Ham United defender.

Review

It's common to pair Scotch whisky with apple, and Bison Grass vodka with apple juice, but combining these three with acidic wine and rich honey adds sweet 'n' sour complexity.

Damn it, I'm sure this would have been a five star cocktail if I could get authentic sweet grass vodka here in the States instead of the ARTIFICIAL flavored stuff! Can't get Maywine either! Must try making my own.
