History

Created for Bacardí Legacy 2017 by Péter Gózon at Warmup RUSTIC bar in Budapest, Hungary.

Péter makes his own vanilla syrup by mixing 0.5 kg sugar & 2.5 ml water, simmered with 2 vanilla pods.

Peter says, "When I was a child my father was a journalist so we were always on the move; I lived in many countries and often found when we returned to Hungary that the local children treated me as a foreigner. I used to dream of being an actor, but lost my confidence because of this.

"Three years ago I walked into my first bar and saw the bartenders at work. I was amazed - I wanted to be like them - like actors on a stage – but needed first to overcome my fear. Now, a few years later, I am part of this amazing competition, which has helped me realize that bartending is my life. When I heard my name at the BLGCC semi-final, I felt invincible - I realized that if you do what you really love, then you are Sin Limites.
"

Review

Some huge flavours presented in a comparatively delicate drink – think bittersweet and spiced Vanilla Daiquiri.

Surprised by the results and curious to test other white rums now... Vanilla syrup: 2.5 vanilla extract, 12.5 2:1 cane simple (turned out good). Rum: Plantation 3 Stars. 2 drops saline... I can see this being better with Bacardi... Made it a second time with Clement Rhum 40% - too dominant, balance thrown way off, but still more than palatable... Always up for trying cocktails with cardamom, and the measure here is spot on.

Ooh, seems like I wasn't clear in my take - Plantation/Plantaray 3 Stars is excellent for this. Rght in the pocket.

Amazing complexity - fragrant, sweet, sour and bitter

Surprisingly (or not) the Campari makes it taste grapefruity.
Not too sweet. Cardamom hints trail after swallow. A nice touch.
