Notes

Pama "Are You Indispensable" Competition Cocktail

History

I didn't want a sweetening component in the cocktail to tame the wonderful sweet-tart character of Pama, so inspiration struck in the form of the crusta which allows the imbiber to adjust the level of sweetness sip to sip. In place of the traditional brandy and lemon I chose tequila and lime backed by the island spice of allspice dram

Moderated this slightly - specified Cynar as the Amaro, specified brand of lemon bitters.

Thanks,

This drink, Klaus Kinski, as is, I rated as 3.5. The ingredients blend together OK, but the overall taste is somewhat flat and definitely "heavy." It needs a contrasting flavor, so I added two dashes of blood orange bitters, but the other ingredients overwhelmed the flavor of the bitters. I decided, then, that what is needed is a zest from a citrus fruit, I added grapefruit zest, and it was helpful. Next time, I'm going to try orange or lemon (maybe Meyer Lemon zest). If anyone else comes up with a better solution, be sure to write a comment, I'd like to hear from others who have "fiddled" with this cocktail. Thanks.


@MOJOjojo I believe I made this with an orange twist. I'll add it to the drink recipe.


Clear, but intense reddish-orange color. Rated highly by all three of us. Provides a good balance of the herbal, bitter, mild rum hogo, and rye.

If lacking Barolo Chinato, you can fake it with Cocchi Vermouth and a couple of shakes of Bitter Truth aromatic bitters.

There's nothing to fear with this drink. The "Fear & Whiskey" (if you use the right rye) is absolutely delightful. I used a rye light in taste, but with wonderful overtones--10 year Whistle Pig. I was afraid that using a rye like Rittenhouse (which I frequently use in drinks calling for rye) would overwhelm the Braulio. The Whistle Pig did not; both came through, loud and clear.

The "Fear & Whiskey" is a wonderful before-dinner drink; some might even say after-dinner also. Regardless, I rated this libation at 4.5.

But make sure you use Whistle Pig or Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye (or any other rye that is light in its taste and overtones); doing otherwise MAY result is a less satisfying drink.
