A creamy more varied in flavour "Daiquiri" style drink. Almost a Tiki drink without all the ice, and gaudy glassware getting in the way. I did add extra Lime. to keep the sweetness in check.
I was sceptical of the Scotch coming through in this drink because of the low volume, but it does shine. I will do this again. A nice low ABV balanced cocktail.
I really enjoyed this drink. Although now that I have read some history about Barney I would make it with a South African Brandy instead of a Cognac, and sipping and reflecting on whether he jumped or was pushed off the boat.
Sometimes the backstory on a cocktail takes it to the next level.
