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...
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.
