It started as a gift of a bottle of gin, a cocktail shaker and two enormous martini glasses. It has led to too many assorted bottles, too many glasses, too many cocktail… show more
I like Ouzo so a ‘decent slug’ is fine by me :-)
I would either up the Ouzo and Whiskey or lower the vermouth.
A cocktail for whiskey lovers who want to drink from a martini glass!
I used Monkey Shoulder which retained its character with the Old Tom gin and dry vermouth
An interesting alternative to using Bitterman’s Mole Bitters and Agave spirits.
Pleasant.
It’s damned a little by faint praise. Easy to drink with the bitters moderating the sweetness. The Vodka base unfortunately doesn’t give it any true substance.
For me the lemon overpowers any potential nuance in the cocktail. I ended up adding 5ml more Green Chartreuse and 10ml more of both brandies.
I am interested to l try it with Yellow Chartreuse.
Intriguing. The Maraschino and Lime almost clash but get away with it. I used Burnt Faith English Brandy which is pretty robust (in a good way) and it ended up being a complex drink without either bitters or an amaro in sight!
