Much prefer the other version (by Dominic Alling) which uses Mescal. Refreshing way to use Mescal in a cocktail which still lets it shine through. This recipe seems like a more complicated version of the Trinidad Sour, which works amazingly well in its original, simple form.

I feared my Allspice Dram had sat a little too long, so I was looking for cocktails to make, and this popped up. The spice in the Angustora dominates, as expected, but the dram fills in late, in a very pleasing way. My lemon wasn't the best, so I was a bit scant on it, and paralleled that with the grenadine. But I can imagine how a little more tart/sweet could make this even better.

I suggest using a whiskey with a high rye content, I used New Riff straight rye. holds up quite well with the angostura

Surprisingly good - like Christmas in a coupe!

AMAZING. This cocktail is quite special. It's spicy, it's bitter, it's sweet, it's sour, with each layer revealed distinctively. It's a festival for all of your tastebuds! ? Added to favourites!

Made one with an aged column still rum instead of rye, turned out well!
