Ballroom
As Jason, the creator of this scotch and coffee cocktail, says, it's "redolent of a freshly polished ballroom floor (in a good way!)"

Ballantine's Finest, Tia Maria and Angostura cocoa bitters, along with what little syrup stuck to my bar spoon after lifting the cherry out of the jar - earthy and fairly dry in a way that highlights the common ground between the scotch, coffee and chocolate, but with just enough sweetness to round them out. Lovely!

Tried with Monkey Shoulder and Mr Black. This drink is like a more complex revolver that highlights the darker chocolate notes. 10/10 for me.

Used Mr black for coffe liqueur and homemade chocolate and coffee bitters. Probably quite a bit dryer than the above version; but I generally find drinks with Kahlua far too sweet.
However, with a bit of maraschino jar syrup too taste it is truly a very palatable cocktail.

I used Shackleton Whisky which has a bit of peat which complimented the coffee and chocolate notes. Greater than the sum of its parts.

Tried this one using the new Tempus Fugit coffee liqueur and Jonny Walker Black. A simple drink that needs premium ingredients, but absolutely spot on. Hooray!

Do you know when Jason created this? Or when you discovered it?
