Review:

Boozy yet delicate, beautifully balanced and complex. This Japanese whisky riff on a classic Manhattan benefits from freshening aniseed and minty notes from Strega.

History:

Adapted from a recipe by Brad Farran, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA. Brad’s original recipe calls for Yamazaki 12 year old. He named his cocktail in reference to the third instalment of the Fast and the Furious movies, which he thinks, “is pretty hilarious.”
