Dead link -- so here's one from my blog: https://cocktailvirgin.blogspot.com/2009/02/tommy-noble.html

According to Dave, he is not a fan of 1910-30s boxing, but it was named after from the "Drinking out of cups" video with the talking lizard. He and and another bartender used to banter back and forth with lines from that video. Puts the year a little after 2000 since the video came out 2006 and I had it in early 2009.

Fred, you may be right. But other sources peg it earlier, e.g. this says 2003:

https://www.thefoodlens.com/boston/sides/cocktail-recipe/cocktail-of-th…

Don’t know if it could have been inspired by the audio of that video?
“Audio track was originally recorded in 2003 as a class project by the American musician Dan Deacon, just talking about random things on TV channels in character of a stereotypical Long Islander. It was also featured on his 2003 release Meetle Mice. ”

  • Liked the overall complex dark flavor profile, but too sweet. Balanced well with juice of half a lime.
  • Very bitter. Very sweet. More Amaro than cocktail. Of course, that's hardly a problem.
  • I liked the original, but just tried subbing cachaca with Barbancourt white rum and added a generous splash of homemade ginger beer on top. Kind of like a Dark and Stormy, but with much more depth and complexity.
  • "Choking Nut" perhaps?

Yes. Really, really needs a better name. Maybe the bartender's canine companion is named "Dog" and his son, "Malechild".

  • Needs a lot more than 1/4 oz of simple with that much lemon and lime juice. I probably added close to 3/4 oz of rich demerara before it tasted like a punch. I used T. F. Noyaux - perhaps not as sweet as others.

I agree needs more sugar. I got to 1/2 oz and it was still too sour. Maybe just ease up on lemon/lime.

  • Scotch + cola. Walnut bitters does well here.
  • 3 stars with Averna, but 5 stars with Biglet China China!

HallA commented on 2/05/2022:

Agree with a 3 with averna. Black walnut bitters + averna and punt a mes just leads to a kind of muddy bitterness with the scotch I was using (highland park 12). Suspect there is a good mix here, this wasn't it. Curious about using my homemade Amer Picon.
