Velvet Mafia (Taïwan connexion #5)

1 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
1⁄2 oz Falernum, Velvet Falernum
1⁄2 oz Averna
1 oz Lime juice
1 ds Bitters, Angostura Orange
1 spg Rosemary
Instructions

Shake, strain in chilled coupe, burn slightly rosemary sprig (cut to fit inclined in the coupe). Serve.

Notes

The drink was really good,
With chartreuse front and a lot of spice. I did not get the proportions.
The drink served was quiet sweet but rosemary burnt scent balanced a bit the sweet perception.

I think the ratio was equal parts or approaching.

I uped lime, decreased Averna since Chartreuse was front and decreased falernum.

History

Taïwanese cocktails seems to be quiet sweet. Very difficult to find drier drinks. Even when you ask for something not too sweet.

Their palates seem to be accustomed to very sweet desserts and drinks (shaved ice with fruits and syrups, bubble teas, etc...)

Luck Be a Lady

2 oz Rye, High West Double Rye
3⁄4 oz Bigallet China-China
1⁄2 oz Rich demerara syrup 2:1
2 ds Chocolate bitters, Fee Brothers Aztec Chocolate
1 rinse Islay Scotch, Lagavulin 16
Instructions

Spritz or rinse a rocks glass with the Scotch and then add a large block of ice. Stir the remaining ingredients in a mixing glass and strain into the prepared glass, then add one final spritz of Scotch over the finished cocktail.

Notes

Fearing it would be too sweet, I only used about 1/2 tsp of Demerara syrup, which was plenty for my palate. Might omit the syrup altogether next time, as I prefer most cocktails on the drier side.

Replaced the Doctor Bird with S&C. Don’t know how accurate that is. Also used a pineapple syrup in place of the liqueur. Very nice even with these changes.
