  • A bit sweet. Try with angels envy bourbon
  • Grapefruit and cinnamon work really well together in this. — ★★★★★
  • Really interesting combo. I'd put this in the early spring rotation...nice bridge between winter and spring. I didn't have cinnamon syrup handy...subbed Velvet Falernum and worked out well.
  • Cinnamon is way too strong! — ★★★
  • A good whiskey sour alternative. Flavors very appealing up front. The finish is somehow a little "flat" and "grainy," perhaps from the cinnamon? — ★★★★

  • Ancho Reyes up to 0.5 oz works.
  • Well balanced, plenty of nuance. Always cool when creme de cacao doesn't overpower the drink.

Felt it was a bit too sweet. I used Wild Turkey 101 and liked the banana chocolate taste and boozy aspect of the cocktail. Will up the heat next time and cut the cacao next time, thanks. 

Well balanced and approachable. Excellent cold weather beverage.
Recommended Changes
3oz - Bourbon Widow Jane 10 Year
1/2 oz - Sweet Vermouth (same)
1/2 oz - Ancho Reyes - adds a nice spice factor
1/4 oz - Creme de Cacao (same)
3 ds of Cherry Bark Vanilla bitters ... just my preference to balance with the increase Ancho Reyes

  • look at list of similar cocktails- many like Manhattan
  • Made with Bulleit rye and homemade dram. Dry cinnamon hits first. Fernet grows more apparent as the drink goes. More treble than I expected; Ritt would probably work better.
