This is an excellent alternative to a Boulevardier, a drink I love very much, so that is saying a lot. I used Ramazzotti in place of Montenegro, which I’m out of, and it works extremely well. Something about the sherry and amaro combination gives the drink an almost saline quality, and then that hint of coffee comes through. Really impressive!

This was surprisingly delicious. I’m working my way through a bottle of Montenegro. And happened to have everything else in this cocktail. I would not have put this together on my own. I used Penelope bourbon, a current fave, and it was very yummy!

I really like to know how its title came about…..this mix is like a good puzzle keep my mind wondering! Made with Bourbon tonight, will try Rye next time.

Was only so-so for me.

Yeah I really like this. Back in March I wasted our parties evening trying to get us into Drink Kong, place was empty but reservation only. Shame as turning away 4 people willing to spend a decent amount in an hour or two is a lot of money but regardless, the place looked great.

A great drink, tastes exactly as something should from a top end bar.

Great as an aperitivo. Used 90 proof rye. What a wonderful blending of flavours. Nothing overpowers the other. Even with the small amount of coffee liqueur. Wow.

I love this. I prefer bourbon based bevvies after dinner or late night sippers, and this fits like a glove.
I acquired a bottle of Amaro Meletti, on a discount deal, and it's caramel silkiness works perfectly in this too.
Top drawer. Thank you.
