Commodore No. 2

Lemon juice balances this bourbon and crème de cacco-based red-coloured cocktail that is perhaps best served as an after-dinner cocktail

I don't like to sweat the small stuff but in your history of this cocktail I suspect that you meant to say "stipulates", not "stimulates". btw I now have one of your jiggers and what an excellent little thing it is...bravo.

An absolutely delectable dessert drink with woody, intense Bourbon, fruity sweetness of grenadine, nice, dessert notes of the Cacao and the lemon to provide acidity and balance. But the serve was a disaster as my drink overflowed over the crushed ice, resulting in at least a third of the drink being wasted. What a crying shame!

Is this meant to be served up in a coupe as pictured or over crushed ice as described?

It should be served over crushed ice in a coupe. I'll re-shoot to replace pic ASAP. Many thanks for bringing to my attention.

A bit all over the map. Balanced in that each sip seems to swing between two poles. We found this only OK.

Really delicious cocktail. I liked the combination of bourbon with grenadine. Cacao liqueur also suits well
