I’m not usually partial to mixing rum with whiskeys or cognac, and unfortunately this did not prove to be one of the exceptions. Made it to use up homemade pineapple syrup after having the excellent East India No. 2.
However I found the Baker version of the East India House to be very good - thank you for the translation!

The coffee beans add a strong olfactory element as you sip it

Delicious and interesting. As written except didn’t have the bitters so substituted Angostura plus a few drops of Old Overholt Rye.

I’m surprised this doesn’t have a greater presence on the site, being a recreation of Kina Lillet, for a long time unavailable. The quinine and its chemical reaction with gin (ala Gin & Tonic) is essential, not to be found by using Lillet Blanc or Cocchi Americano.
Kina L’Aéro d’Or is delicious in the half dozen drinks calling for Kina Lillet in Harry Craddock’s The Savoy Cocktail Book, my favorites being the Great Secret Cocktail and the Depth Charge Cocktail.
