History

Created 2018 by Odd Strandbakken at Himkok, Oslo, Norway, this was the winning cocktail in the final of the Heering Classics competition. For the competition, Odd garnished this drink with olives stuffed with Kraftkar cheese, a spicy Norwegian blue cheese judged the Supreme Champion in 2016 World Cheese Awards. And as he says, this cocktail "perfectly pairs with cheese."

Review

Sweet and sour with delicate bitterness and a complex cherry flavour, this cocktail is designed to pair with cheese.

Comments & Discussion

Robert Spain
Excellent, but mine was really sweet. I'm not happy with the quality of the cherry liqueur I can buy in my town, so I've prepared my own. I used Luxardo cherries syrup, a bit of brandy, almond essence, and a tad of Averna to correct sweetness. For the other ingredients, I followed the recipe. I love it, but it's probably much sweeter than it should be.

Subbed amontillado for the fino and Cynar for the Angostura Amaro. Wow this is something different, cherry, treacle and liquorice.

Any suggestions on garnish if you don’t have the cheese stuffed olive?
