History

This innovative cocktail creation marries the bold flavors of Mexico with the premium craftsmanship of Hayman's Gin.
The Mole Old Fashioned is a fusion of rich and complex flavors, crafted using Hayman's Dry Gin as the base spirit. The addition of cocoa bitters lends a subtle chocolate note, reminiscent of the traditional mole sauce, while the artichoke amaro adds a hint of herbal bitterness to enhance the botanical complexity of the gin.
The use of corn liquor and mezcal in the cocktail brings depth and smokiness, creating a harmonious balance of flavors that perfectly complement the smooth and refined character of Hayman's Dry Gin. This unique combination not only celebrates the cultural heritage of Mexico but also elevates the gin to new heights, offering a sophisticated and memorable cocktail experience.

I made this with an aged gin and chipotle cacao bitters. For my taste buds it could have been a touch sweeter, but it's delicious as is.
