I've been making this as a variation for quite a while. I came up with the idea independently, because I was looking for ways to use the delicious Passoã Passion Fruit liqueur, which I use instead of a passion fruit syrup. I still make the standard Jungle Bird recipe more often, but the passion fruit flavor works brilliantly there.

  • A French 75 riff, about equally likable. Made with Beefeater and prosecco. I can see Plymouth being a better fit.

  • Earthy but not heavy, with hearty veggie flavors all through the sip. You really can’t substitute any ingredient - this particular gin has a unique makeup.
  • If you like Cynar, This cocktail is fantastic.
  • no more than 4 dashes celery bitters Original rating of 3 wasn't with Terroir. With Terroir, 3 1/2

MOJO1229 commented on 11/22/2016:

This drink caught me by surprise, mostly because--I think--I've been drinking and loving amaro-based drinks for the last month. The Aristocrat is decidedly different from those wonderful amari; it's sweeter and lighter in taste. I would drink the Aristocrat before dinner or on a lazy do-nothing afternoon.

There are several reasons why I like this drink: The greatest reason is the St. George terroir gin, which is exquisite to say the least. Its label reads like a who's who in the botanical world: "Douglas fir, California bay laurel, fennel, coastal sage, orris root, angelica root, juniper berries, and other profoundly aromatic botanical ingredients..." Pair a great gin with a top-shelf bianco vermouth by Dolin, and Cynar, plus subtle celery bitterrs, and you have a drink making you want another. So have it, and enjoy it!

In closing, I should add that those who like that amaro bitterness will like this drink because of the St. George gin in combination with the Cynar. If you want less bitterness, use a non-botanical gin such as Tanqueray Ten, Citadelle, or Megellen Blue. "The Aristocrat" is, in my opinion, a cocktail most people will enjoy.

  • A very, very good drink. I tried this with Mezcal (Vida) instead of Islay Scotch in an attempt to up the smokiness. 4.5★
  • Made with Don Q Anejo. Definitely get the cigar sense.
  • Interesting. Worth revisiting but Ardbeg was too strong
  • Slow sipping strong drink. Many flavors are present. I did not find sweet at all.
  • 4.5
  • A bit on the sweet side

nex3 commented on 7/04/2016:

I substituted Ledaig 10 for the whisky and Clément Select Barrel for the rum. This really did capture many of the tastier notes of cigar smoke without being overpoweringly strong in any direction.

dmhess commented on 10/02/2016:

A nice balance of complex flavors, eminently drinkable.

laerm commented on 11/16/2019:

I had this as a four-star cocktail for a long time and today I realized I probably make it once a month and tell other cocktail nerds about it. Yeah, that's a five-star cocktail.

NightNurse31 commented on 7/18/2022:

Absolutely love this cocktail. It really surprised me with how complex it is. Very balanced, does not lean too sweet in my opinion. I highly recommend using Pusser's Rum in this. I also prefer to do 1.5 oz rum instead of 1.75. Can't recommend this cocktail enough!

applejack commented on 10/01/2022:

Pretty sure this is supposed to have a dash of Ango.

Craig E commented on 10/01/2022:

Per comment and linked reference, added the missing bitters. Thanks!

drjones commented on 10/01/2023:

Reminds me of a slightly sweeter less smokey, Islay Rob Roy (AKA Smokey Rob Roy). It has more complexity from the Beny D, Cynar & Absinthe compared to Sweet V. A great Rum, non-tiki, cocktail with layers of flavors and room to improvise depending on your sweet/dry pallet. Next time I'll try 1 & 1/2 oz Rum (I used El Dorado 15), 1/2 oz Islay scotch, equal parts Beny D & Cynar totaling 3/4 oz.

  • Used 1.25 oz Rittenhouse, will use 1.5 oz next time. Otherwise, a flavorful, somewhat sweet cocktail. Perhaps reduce the Averna?
  • Might use 1 ds of bitters

Delicious with Tin Cup Colorado whiskey. I used a barspoon of Campari.

i didn't have Xocolatl Mole bitters available, subbed in 1/2 angostura and 1/2 black walnut and it was great.
