100 Year Old Cigar
Stirred down and spirit-forward, so suited to late-night sipping. This cocktail has broader appeal when served on-the-rocks in an old-fashioned glass...

The name is spot on, this is quite literally like drinking an old cigar. I don’t understand how a mixture of some of my favourite things could produce something that tastes like an ashtray, maybe cocktail alchemy.

What an interesting drink. I tried the stirred down version and while I have never smoked it tastes like how a cigar smells. I will love to try it again on the rocks.

It is a true sipper. Goes really well with a mild cigar (Gurkha Heritage) indeed! I only upped the Islay whisky (Finlaggan) to 10ml for some more smokeyness.

What a great drink!!!! I don’t use rum a lot but had an in opened bottle of 8 yr Bacardi on the cabinet and this was a Greta drink to apply it to. Love all the flavors and especially the Absinthe adder!

In my opinion tastewise the difference between Cynar 70 and standard Cynar isn’t as much as one could expect considering the notably higher abv of the Former. The flavour itself in both remains the same anyway. Cynar 70 is just a tad stronger and more intense.

Im wondering how much Cynar 70 alters the flavors or any drink including cynar.

Sadly I don't have a bottle to give this a try and tell you. Hopefully others will enlighten us.
