History

The Belgium Bacardí Legacy 2018 winning cocktail, created by Didier Van den Broeck at Dogma in Antwerp.

The Mr Dogma is like a great drink lost in time. It could have a recipe written on the back of a dusty old cocktail book over a century ago.

This full-bodied, bittersweet long drink with notes of red fruit & orange is our bar's celebration of craft bartending and entrepreneurship; to be enjoyed in good company.

Van den Broeck, 2018

Review

Didier's original recipe uses 20ml pomegranate syrup, which he makes with equal parts organic pomegranate juice & caster sugar.

Out of necessity, I used 7 year old Havana Club and Lustau Vermut Roja with the Amer Picon. I also (gulp) used a sugar-free grenadine. This is a fine drink. Fruity and gently bitter-sweet with a firm smokiness from the aged rum. I might try and boost the rum element next time. I’d say this is also a crowd pleaser: I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t like it. It’s complex enough for the congnescenti, but unlikely to offend others. Very good indeed.
