Once cleared it was still naked but blurry. Is not bad, in the same universe, seems the ginger make it the smoky denser. But very much in the same song of the N&F, so this is like remixes, intros and outros.

Farewell

I am so tired today that I see this: Farewell. Sounds perfect, is very perfect, serious dry, is a statement. Better than the white negroni, it even taste a little like a pernod.

Its amazing a good contester to the Naked and Famous in a totally different way. This is a witch in search of fame. Here in Mexico witchcraft is in every corner. And there is a huge herbal, botanical market for magic 'enterprises'. Once when I worked for Bombay Gin, the make a contest, and all the mexican contestants did exactly what they learned for worldwide mixologist masters. I was so angry, in the 'Sonora Market' are thousands of herbals never tasted in cocktails. So, if anyone want to make 'magic' we have much more to experiment.

I can't believe I haven't review this since all times since decades I make corpse revivers! this days I am doing a list of the B Halloween drinks, in my country is El Dia de los Muertos and is Huge, we already make the altar, all my pugs are already disguised. The day 27th Oct the dead pets arrives, and everybody we go to the cementery: because all corpses will revive. This is delicious, and I never thought of drink it in this festivities. From now on I will make all the Corpse Revivers for my guest of this dates.

The police sirens can already be heard in the distance... since I dont have Acquavit and ask the 'chatgpt' and says I use Becherovka... many times this dude is obvious doesnot have tongue... since its recommendations are horrible. In this case I think is not so bad -but I am clueless into the taste of aquavit :S-

We start the halloween festivities. Maybe the cardamom is too dominant, but is fasceted with the banana flavor. I noticed normally almost don't drink vodka so this a little strange for me. Is Stoli. I like the flavor. Lets see if I continue with this festivities drinks I can make a better costume.

Perilous name. And sort of an oldtimer, since it taste like smtg from the fifties. So dry, so well behaved. Very interesting today, not tomorrow I think, but sometimes I read my self and came back .

Enzoni

I was very surprised with the grapes flavor. Is a very good cocktail. I used Monkey 47+Savoia Rosso. Later on I will try with the Campari since the big difference is my Enzoni was more into the greenish than the reddish in color. (my grappes were very intense). This is a god omen, my cocktails today will be ok, since I started so fine :D.

Two weeks later...I am afraid of suze, of fernet, of absinthe. And I am very afraid of cinzano. But I cam here after the Eeyores Requiem. This is very sweet -contrast?- and really enyojable. Thing better the before version.

I was afraid of fernet, but this is the festival of bitterness so is really unnoticeable, and yes this is sweet, but like 8 italian expressos with some sugar in order to top the striking sensation. I do drink beacause I want to take further my taste unto undiscovered territories. This is, is a little punishment in a Nick & Nora glass. But I think is doable, repeatable, and the same as kissing a bad person, very enjoyable.

Believe me I'm mexican: tequila & mezcal are the same thing basically. And then we have 'aperol style' so instead of the Yellow Chartreuse, it came the Averna. So its a 'skim dressed and relatively known' its talkative and coquette, not very strong but giggling. So it was perfect to start the sunday festivaties.

And in our favorite section ' I don't know what to do whith this bottle' I went to the store sometime and bought one of those bottles with a full pear inside. Tacky but funny I bring it home, since I am bored. I make this cocktail and is very Pear flavor, I went up with sugar, and some lime. It was perfect to start my saturdays exploration. Lovely.

Like a lost last word, but very good. I love how the st germain gave dimension to it. Sweet but at the end tart. And much more into dry. It was perfect to close my sunday bar.

If you can get your hand in a bottle of Casa Dragones. I use the one 200 copas -for Karol G, is smoked really tequila but with a side of mezcal. Even in my 6th decade I never thought of the tequila + st germain could be so good. Is a nice Marga-strange. It was very celebrated in my house.

I went for plain vermouth, and was quite sure I saw in my bottle library one with japanese flowers tree, and it was true, but it was not sakura it is Suntory Plum Dew, and I get smtg interesting but a more into asweet-and-sour stone-fruit cocktail. Now I know it would be advise to use one floral. But I was taken by the drawing in the bottle :S.

Like smoky water - very clean on the palate, but with prominent smokiness (not overwhelming, but it is dominating). Sake is present in the distant background, and Italicus is not notable. I think that maybe 10-15ml of triple sec (e.g. Dry Curacao) would be a nice substitute - boosting the citrus. Maybe also using lime bitters in place of margarita.

trendomexico

I also never notice the italicus, thanks for state it.

trendomexico

Very gentle when normally I feel predominantly the Italicus. Here is a pendulum between the mezcal and the sake, -unexpected- is like the martini sake planet, vey tasty and surprising. I will keep it.

Unlike a beautifully statuesque woman, Sake doesn't age well. So to enjoy and finish your bottle in its youthful and ephemeral, blushing prime, maybe stir a "For Mezcalicus Sake". Salud.

Ipso facto I will go, many thanks for your recommendation. The same as with netflix is three hours to decide and then see something, so I really apreciate advice since sometimes hours to investigate what to prepare. So many recipes, so little time

In vino veritas, makes me so happy to get into a cocktail never reviewed before. i did exactly as this, and the casssis went into the bottom as described, and was sort of a dessert at the end. Is a lot of fun to do it, familiar flavors, but I enjoy the effect. Cute.
