A great discovery. Love the roundedness of this bourbon-FB combo.

After several goes, we settled on 1½ Bourbon, 1 Cocchi Torino, ¼ Fernet Branca, ¼ Bénédictine.

Excellent with RL Searle and Scarlett Ibis. I assume any drier rum like Xaymaca would sub fine for the Ibis. I almost get a coconut smell and taste from it interestingly.

  • I would have rated this 2 stars as written - by increasing the Suze to ~ 1/4 or 1/3 of an ounce, the drink was better.

Nude Descending a Staircase

1 1⁄2 oz Rye (Rittenhouse preferred)
3⁄4 oz Aquavit
1⁄2 oz Suze
1⁄4 oz Demerara syrup
1 twst Orange peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a rocks glass with ice, and garnish with an orange twist.

Notes

Original was 1 1/4 oz rye and no syrup, but I began making it as posted above for guests at Drink in Boston.

History

I was inspired by the combination in Amor y Amargo's Cubist (aquavit, Suze, dry vermouth, olive bitters) to extract the aquavit-Suze duo. To the aquavit, I recalled how well it paired with rye whiskey in several recipes. I considered adding an aromatized wine to the mix, but I opted to keep this in the style of an Old Fashioned for simplicity's sake. As for a name, I recalled the painting Nude Descending a Staircase as being sort of Cubist. Indeed, Marcel Duchamp's 1912 work was first labeled as Cubist before being rejected by the art movement as being too Futuristic.

  • Although I'm normally a big fan of the Xocolatl Mole bitters, not sure if they play well here. Might try Boker's next time. Aside from that, very nice!
