Gustin Gang

1⁄2 oz Cynar
2 ds Peychaud's Bitters
1 twst Lemon peel (As garnish)

History

At Our Fathers, I decided to riff on the 1919 Cocktail utilizing dry and sloe gin as the two spirits (we were a gin bar after all). While I kept the Punt e Mes intact, I switched from molé to Peychaud's Bitters due to their working well with sloe's fruit notes. Moreover, I swapped the original's Benedictine for Cynar to pair with the sloe gin akin to Phil Ward's Lipspin. For a name, I thought about what else was happening around 1919 -- namely, gangs were gearing up for Prohibition. One famous Boston gang to work bootlegging into their operations was the Gustin Gang. The Gustin Gang was formed in the mid-1910s and by the 1920s began to dominate Boston's underworld. During Prohibition, they purchased rum-running boats that brought booze from international waters into South Boston where they supplied their South Boston speakeasy, the Sportlight, as well as other local establishments.

Secret Saba

1 1⁄2 oz Rye, Rittenhouse 100
3⁄4 oz Cognac
3⁄4 oz Moscatel Sherry
1⁄2 oz Fernet Branca
Instructions

Short stir (a 10 count), strain into a chilled coupe.

Notes

The cognac should be an older style with some sweetness, color and boise. For the sherry, use something darker, not a Chipiona. I used Valdespino - the one with the gorgeous orange label.

History

Started out as a Toronto riff. I love a rye/cognac split base, and the sherry was at hand. It just took the realization that too much dilution makes the Fernet overly medicinal.
