History

Created in 2020 by Neil Grayshon as "a nice way to help with an inventory problem." Neil's original recipe calls for 2oz Delicado amontillado, ¾oz Discarded vermouth, and ¼oz Luxardo maraschino.

Review

Medium-dry sherry lightly sweetened and aromatised with sweet vermouth and maraschino liqueur. If you prefer a tad drier, then sub 15ml / ½oz of amontillado sherry for fino sherry. Or do like we do, and mix 50/50 amontillado and fino.

Very good sherry based cocktail. Mixing different sherries depending on how dry you want this to be is a welcome proposition.

Don Benigno | Rivata ... havent found a good use of sherry until now, this was very good, has a nice slightly tangy "pop" to it, im assuming from the luxardo, usually sherry has just been kinda dull and sweet to me but this was good
