  • Interesting tho not made with exact ingredients. Liked the coffee and aniseed effect
  • Absinthe dominant up front, then settles into a creamy, complex flavor.
  • tried, but I think I got the proportions wrong, so pass on rating.
  • Wonderfull after-dinner drink — ★★★★★

History

Ojen is a spirit once produced in Andalusia Spain that was adopted by New Orleans in the early 20th century. A local liquor store bought the last 500 cases of Ojen when the producer went out of business. In 2016, the Sazerac Co. began to produce their version of the defunct spirit.

  • Punt y Mes is a bitter so subl sweet vermouth. (you can add about 3 dashes of Angostura for bitter effect.) Sub yellow Chartreuse for green, but it's worth trying both ways. I use Glenmorangie 10 as my highland.- Mike
  • Very nice. I like smokey/peaty drinks, so this is right down my alley. i could see myself getting used to this one :)

Tainted Love

1 oz Campari (Coffee Infused**)
3 ds Bitters (Dashfire Ancient Chinese Secret)
1 twst Orange peel (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice in a beaker and strain into a rocks glass with a large cube. Garnish with orange peel.

Notes

**Coffee infused Campari: Add 3 table spoons of coffee beans to 750ml of Campari and let sit for 24 hours shaking well as often as possible. Filter back in to bottle.

History

Always been a fan of Creme Yvette with Rye, then a friend of mine combined it with Ardbeg which introduced the smoke. Decided to then add Campari but wanted more so infused it with coffee and played with bitters until it was just right.

  • Prefer it with overproof rye and ⅔ oz of banane. Good with Cocchi, too. — ★★★★★
  • Used Cocchi Americano and homemade crème. Good but too sweet.
  • Like banana bread. Sweet but for me not overwhelmingly so.
  • sub bourbon for rye
  • As suggested, subbed in Rittenhouse and Cocchi Americano, and found the result sweet but refreshing.
  • Good but too sweet, try with rye or 1/2oz creme de banane — ★★★★
  • Made with Four Roses small batch, Giffard Banane du Brasil and BT creole. I would not make this with Bourbon - not enough contrast between the bourbon and the banana. Perhaps high-proof rye. Banana dominates, sweet.

  • Field Cocktail — Cognac, Dry vermouth, Pineapple juice, Pineapple

Haigh does shake this, though conventional wisdom would have it stirred.


Balanced, but kInd of cloying. I would try again with high proof rye and cocchi or kina rather than lillet. Might actually still need a dash or rinse of absinthe so the anise doesn't get totally lost beneath the sweet banana-y flavors.
