  • Bold and beautiful. Also goes well with an orange garnish. Closer to 1:1:1 ratios works well too.
  • I liked this. A lot. Made it with Xicaru Reposado mezcal, and strongly recommend a lime shave over a lemon twist. Also use a proportion of 2:1:1 Mezcal:Antica:Campari, which is my typical Negroni formula

<br />One fine Mezcal drink! For me, Mezcal took some getting used to because of its smokiness: some Mezcal-based drinks were barely drinkable; a fair number were OK, but...; only a few were anything to write home about. This drink, the Oaxacan Negroni, is in the last category. In fact, I couldn't write home fast enough about it. Yes, it has a smokey taste, but it's competing with other strong tastes, especially Campari. However, even the subtle notes of the Antica Formula vermouth (such as its vanilla notes) get through to make a georgous, tasteful drink that is not easy to put down--until the glass is empty. I had an easy time rating this drink, at 5.0. It is truly a wonderful drink to sip and relish its many flavors and complexity.


I liked this. A lot. Made it with Xicaru Reposado mezcal, and a 2:1:1 ratio of mezcal:vermouth:Compari (my standard Negroni formula), and strongly recommend a lime peel shave over a lemon twist.

  • First sip screams bitter, as expected, but subsequent sips allow orange and caramel through. Maybe too sweet by the end; would rye work well here? — ★★★★

<br />
A georgous bourbon negroni-style drink! I rate few drinks as a 5.0, but I rated the Boulevardier (Stagger Lee) as a 5.0 without hesitation. I noticed one user said "First sip screams bitter..." Myself, I made sure to use less than 7/8 oz of Campari, just to avoid issues of bitterness. The same user judged the drink perhaps too sweet toward the end of the drink, and suggested using rye instead of bourbon. I'm guessing the sweetness is due to the Cynar becoming more prominent as the large ice rock melted, and the drink became diluted. I avoided this by simply stirring with ice until cold (~30 seconds) and then pouring the drink into a chilled glass. In other words, I didn't use any ice after stirring. Thus, the drink's taste remained uniform, from beginning to end. And it was great!


Still Life

3⁄4 oz Kirschwasser
3⁄4 oz Maurin Quina
3⁄4 oz Orange liqueur, Orangerie
1 bsp Absinthe, Pernod (as float)
Instructions

Shake, strain, float absinthe.

Notes

In progress. Trying to get to a Florodora. Probably subbing Mirabelle for Kirsch and Heering for Quina. Needs rinse of absinthe. This is not as sweet as it seems.

Dan commented on 6/20/2016:

Quite nice. My cassis was rather oxidized and that came through under the Campari. I think it would be better with fresh vibrant cassis or some other berry-family liqueur. Stone fruit -- maybe apricot -- might work too. Without the gin, I think it would be cloying.

The "History" field says it was created by Kal Moore but the "Created by" field says it was created by Mike Gordon. What's up?


mako,

The original idea & recipe was passed along to me by Mike Gordon.  I wrote it down, walked over to The Gresham, and Kal Moore put it all together for the very first time.


HallA commented on 5/29/2022:

Solid three. I think this would be inferior with rum rather than cachaca or with cheap grenadine.
