History

Created by Ralf Ramirez of The Exhibition Room, Long Beach, CA, at one of Gary "gaz" Regan's excellent educational Cocktail the Country sessions.

Review

As Ralf, the drinks creator, says, "The Batavia plays well with the pineapple and the gomme, and the sherry gives it depth and body" to produce a punch-style cocktail.

Comments & Discussion

Very sweet - you shouldn't be surprised, since most of the drink is sweet liquid. Given the clear tiki drink connection here - batavia arrack, pineapple juice, pimento/allspice, with nutmeg dusting - I think I might like this better served on some crushed ice, do dilute the sweetness and stretch the intense flavors a bit more.
