That went down too easy. Stars aligned, I had all of the ingredients... I don't know if my palate is shot, but I thought it needed a lil more edge. Made it again with 2 dashes of ginger bitters and that sharpened its attack... I might want to play with the specs, because the ginger bitters gave it a Penicillin visage, and I'd rather stray away from leaning toward crafting a variant of it and look more to accent the agave spirits and acidity... What do you think?
I to was sceptical of Agave and Pear together but not anymore. Having no Spiced Pear Liqueur I used Pear Brandy, Pear Liqueur, & Ancho Reyes to form that element. The Montelobos with the Tequila gives a nice level of smoke and Creosote. My Wife and I will definitely add this to the rotation.
The Old Money that we know and love is: 2oz Bourbon, 1/2oz Aperol, 3/4oz of walnut liqueur and a dash of Angostura Bitters. We mist it with allspice liqueur and express some orange peel. Perfect for a late night movie. Do you have this, or similar, under another name?
