History

Irish Bacardí Legacy 2018 winning cocktail by Tony Barry at Cask in Cork, Ireland.

A 'hug from Mary' is a hospitality ritual among the bartenders of Cork. Mary is owner, bartender & host of the oldest family pub in Cork - The Castle Inn. The Castle has no television, Wi-Fi or phones; the only noise you can hear is chatting amongst friends. When you are served a cold drink by Mary it is the perfect welcome. I also grew up working in a family pub and understand the importance of tradition. My Hug from Mary cocktail reflects flavours found in any Irish bar, my bartending career, a salute to Irish bartenders and, of course, Mary!

I used a craft RIS in this recipe and found I liked it more when I went heavy with it (doubled to 2oz). I happened to quite like the PX in the mix, and felt the overall became a nice pseudo coffee imperial stout.

Trash at the prescribed specs. I reduced the PX by half... El Dorado 8, Guinness FX Stout, Luxardo Espresso, Ango cocoa bitters... This had potential, but it begs for a salty, malty infusion. (19 Jan 2024, 3:20p)

This is lovely- it really is a much needed hug. I used black rum instead of the 8 year old and it’s lovely and toffee flavoured in a grown up way
