Stranger Thing

1 1⁄2 oz Jamaican rum, Wray & Nephew Overproof
1⁄3 oz Cognac VSOP
1⁄4 oz Dry vermouth (Mulassano)
1⁄2 oz Gran Classico (Fat)
1⁄3 oz Herbal liqueur, Elixir Vegetal de la Grande Chartreuse
1⁄8 oz Orange flower water
3 ds Lavender bitters, Scrappy's
5 lf Sage
Instructions

Muddle sage with rum. Mix other ingredients, very long stir, strain, frozen coupe

Notes

Wanted something dry with white overproof rum, and strong floral notes with subtle sweetness.

I Like it dry like listed in the recipe.

But i ve been uping amounts little by little and for a sweeter palate maybe this ratio Will be better:
3/4 gan classico, 1/3 dry vermouth, 1/4 orange flower water.

Both are very different drinks.

Will try sage next infused Overproof.

  • Had to adapt: Had no Gran Classico: used Monte San Costanzo Amaro. Used yellow chartreuse instead of green. Skipped the orange flower water. Had no lavender bitters: used a teaspoon of creme de violette for two drinks. — ★★★★

Used Zamaro which is similar to gran classic, and regular green chartreuse with Dolin dry vermouth, should have had a fatter pour or Zamaro but it was delicious and subdued very good! 

sfnyc commented on 6/25/2021:

I don't think of sage pairing with rum (as least not as well as it does with gin), but this works -- maybe the cognac provides a bridge. I ended up adding 1/2 tsp gomme syrup to open it up a bit, but it also worked without.

This sounds like - take 4 things in everyone's house that no one uses and make something out of it. But it's REALLY GOOD! Just a nice balance of flavors. 

Shockingly good and well balanced. Pleasantly mild, unlike its apocalyptic moniker. I used Brennivin as the aquavit.

Islavardier

2⁄3 oz Islay Scotch, Laphroaig 10
2⁄3 oz Sweet vermouth, Carpano Punt e Mes
2⁄3 oz Averna
1 bsp Herbal liqueur, Chartreuse
1 twst Orange peel (as garnish)
Instructions

Build all ingredients in an old fashioned glass. Stir with ice and garnish with an orange twist.

Notes

The punt e mes is necessary in this due to its added bitterness. The drink doesn’t quite work with most other sweet vermouths.

  • Too sweet for me and not enough biterness from the punt e mes to balance it out.
  • Lagavulin for Islay scotch. Very nice. I didn't have Punt e Mes...so used 1/3 Vitorre Sweet Vermouth and 1/3 Campari. — ★★★★★
  • An awesome boulevardier riff that uses the smoke of Laphroaig in an interesting way with the Averna. Great after a meal or as a nightcap! — ★★★★★

Is the "chartreuse" specified here Green Chartreuse?

I confirm, does not work with Cocchi Torino.

Or maybe also because of izarra green i've used instead of Chartreuse.

 

Cocchi's equivalent would be Dopo Teatro Vermouth Amaro. It seems to work with that, though it is still a bit sweet for my personal taste. I might propose switching to a green Chartreuse rinse.

Excellent. I used Green Chartreuse and the other ingredients exactly as specified. Delightful balance. For a less sweet drink, I'd split the Punt e Mes 50/50 with dry vermouth.
