History

The Danish Bacardi Legacy 2019 winning cocktail. Created by Nicklas Jørgensen, who said, "When creating my cocktail, I wanted to recreate the feeling of when I first tried Bacardí Reserva Ocho, with its sherry finish. My drink is named after my daughter, honouring the Bacardi ethos of excellence, passion, trust and caring which I hope to pass on to her."

This is a flavorful, interesting drink. The absinthe might be at its threshold - it definitely looms large over the overall taste, but I wouldn't go over the measure. In fact, I'd recommend maybe doing a spray (one) rather than a measured amount... It's a pity I don't have citrus on hand at the moment, because a spritz of lemon oil might take this over the top... Getting rid of an old (chilled) bottle of PX, so that's why I tried this. But I'd make it again, oh yes. (28 Sep 2022, 5:30a)
