Review:
Salmon pink in colour. Mezcal adds earthy smoky complexity to this bittersweet, citrusy fresh, aperitivo Last Word riff. And indeed, getting naked can make you famous!

History:
Adapted from a recipe created in 2011 by Joaquín Simó, the Naked & Famous is best known for its early appearance at Death & Co. in Manhattan, New York City, but premiered on the opening menu at Candelaria in Paris and at Teardrop Lounge in Portland, Oregon. Joaquín's original recipe calls for Del Maguey Chichicapa mezcal.
The name comes from the lyrics of a song titled Tricky Kid on Tricky Kid's 1996 album Pre-Millennium Tension.
"And everybody's got a record deal
And everybody wants to be naked and famous
Everybody's got a record deal
And everybody wants to be naked and famous."
