Review:
An after-dinner cocktail with spirituous bourbon, sweetened and mellowed by rich cherry. (We previously had this cocktail served straight-up but it's better on-the-rocks.)
History:
The origins of this cocktail are unknown, but its popularity has been much helped by the famous bartender Hidetsugu Ueno recommending it to guests at his High Five bar in Ginzo, Tokyo, Japan.
