History

We discovered the Toreador Del Diablo in February 2025 at the brilliant Satan's Whiskers in London, England. This delicious cocktail was created circa 2011 by José Manuel Alvarez Gonzalez at Milk & Honey in London. England. Daniel Waddy, a colleague of Manuel's at Milk & Honey, brought the cocktail to Satan's Whiskers.

Review

A Toreador meets a Milk & Honey El Diablo with crème de cassis swapped out for red bitter liqueur. Two already good drinks merged to become a brilliant spicy and bittersweet cocktail.

Nice but not exceptional. As Henry said mostly the Campari comes through.

Interesting drink. For me, it's a good drink. But I can't taste any apricot. I can only taste tequila and campari (which is quite similar to how mezcal taste, for some reason)
