Curated this. Rewrote instructions and notes to avoid copyright. Added date. Edited the bitters - maybe in 2014 those were hard to find, but they're pretty available today. Thanks,  Zachary

VALENCIA COBBLER

3 Cherry tomato
2 3⁄8 oz Amontillado Sherry, González Byass Viña AB
1 oz Triple sec, Cointreau
1 ds Celery bitters, Bitter Truth Celery
Instructions

Muddle cherry tomatoes in base of the shaker. Add other ingredients and fill up with ice. Roll it until chilled and fine strain into a Cobbler glass / Wine glass or Water Goblet (if any available for your desire). Fill up with crushed ice. Garnish with an Orange wedge, a cherry tomato cut into half, a Celery stick and a Rosemary (just flaming before served).

Ps: This drink should be accompanied with Iberico to create the Umami taste of the drink. Enjoy!

Notes

It tastes authentic with a mouth-feel of the Umami flavor of the drink. Try to order it for your girl friend next time at the bar!

History

Inspired by the beautiful Port of Valencia which are the key! La Tomatina is a festival that is held in the Valencian town of Buñol, a town located in the East of Spain and near by the Mediterranean; in which participants throw tomatoes and get involved in this tomato fight purely for entertainment purposes. Since 1945, it has been held on the last Wednesday of August, during the week of festivities of Buñol. Cheers,

Seafoam Fizz

2 oz Absinthe
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Simple syrup
1 oz Egg white
4 oz Club soda
Instructions

Dry shake, shake, collins (up), top with soda.

History

I've seen this listed in a couple different places with slight variations (e.g. no lime); likely derived from the Seapea Fizz, which is essentially the same thing with a lot less absinthe.

Zupa, I like the unapologetic use of bold ingredients in the drinks you've posted.  This one reminds me a bit of a more aggressive "The Man Comes Around", one of my favorites posted here at KC.  Didn't have Norseman Fernet (looks to be a local product in Minnesota), so I've tried this with Fernet Branca, CH Fernet Dogma and Letherbee Fernet, all to good effect.  Love your drink names too, which would be right at home as song titles for some prog math metal album.

applejack commented on 5/29/2020:

Didn't have the Clear Creek kirsch on hand but a dusty bottle of Maraska kirsch I dug up from the back bottom shelf.  I quite liked this, didn't remind me of cherry cough drops at all.  Well balanced (perhaps a touch--and I do mean just a touch--sweet, might do an expressed lime swath next time) with a nice amount of overlapping funky fruit flavors.  Can definitely see the Daq # 4 connection.  Though with the Maraska, this does have the dubious distinction of probably being the only cocktail I can remember where every spirit had a plastic safe pour spout. ;-)
