Review:

When, as originally, this cocktail is made with Rutte Celery Gin, then celery notes are very obvious in the final cocktail - perhaps more so than in the gin itself. Whatever gin you favour, this contemporary version of the 20th Century is fabulously expressive of the gin with subtle rich chocolate notes.

History:

Created in 2016 by Joerg Meyer at Le Lion Bar de Paris, Hamburg, Germany this is a riff on the classic Twentieth Century.
