Smoky Islay malt adds a distinctive aroma and flavour to this appropriately named cocktail with cherry fruitiness and smoothing egg yolk.

History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2008 by Julian de Feral at Bureau, London, England. Julian's original recipe rinsed the glass with Islay whisky but his drink was based on aged rum rather than Scotch.

Absolutely delicious although I will omit or at least diminish sugar syrup next time. Islay whisky and cherry liqueur combine so well. A great comforting cocktail, tasty and unusual as commented by a discerning anonymous drinker ?

Very nice. The peated whisky was just enough to be present but not stealing the show. Whisky and cherry pudding ?
