  • A cigar-store kinda drink.
  • Tried it with the potato, one that I had cooked with Porchetta, along with a lamb pachuga instead of mezcal. It was good. Passed out, Woke up and could play a flute.
  • This is a real nice drink though I didn't throw any spuds in it (despite being Irish). On my 2nd time through, I added some Rye to it to mellow out the smoke and for fun. Also excellent.

I thought the baked potato added some interesting smoked notes, but my doctor says I should watch my starch intake. 4/5 for me.

I'm probably going to have to redo this fettuccini and cassava root cocktail then.

Picard? Needs more tea, Earl Grey, hot.
