  • Wow really good. Subtle. Anise forward. Made with 2oz Brandy, which I think it needs. I forget about Yellow Chartreuse, it really does some work here.
  • Licorice and mint drawn out.
  • Used Maison Rouge VSOP Cognac in place of the brandy. Nice "Negroni-like" (or "Parisian/French Negroni") alternative for those who can't handle Campari. — ★★★★★
  • 20200108 Subtle. Try with Difford's ratios.

Curated this. H/T to Rafa above. Removed Jarritos as a brand of agua de tamarindo.. it's a tamarind flavored soda, not what the recipe calls for. Added garnish. Transcribed agua de tamarindo recipe from the link cited. Corrected spelling of the drink.

Thanks,

Zachary

8stringfan commented on 3/04/2017:

Almost feel like giving it 2.5, if it was possible.  There's definitely the possibility for an excellent cocktail here - the mezcal and cherry heering are an odd pair but they kind've work.  Heering tends to be so sweet and overpowering, especially with blended scotch in the original Blood and Sand, but mezcal has the strength of flavor to really stand up to it better.  And yet...something's not quite reight here.  It's still a little too sweet.  Not sure what the answer is, but it just seems like it could be tweaked and optimized.  As it stands, it's still a perfectly tasty and interesting drink, and well worth making if you have the ingredients.

Constantinople

1 1⁄2 oz Bourbon
1 oz Fig liqueur (homemade (see notes))
1⁄2 oz Sweet vermouth (Infused with coffee)
1⁄2 oz Sweet vermouth
2 dr Liquid smoke
Instructions

Stir with ice and strain into a chill glass

Notes

Balanced flavor of smoke, fig, coffee and bourbon.

Steep 6 figs quartered in 150 rum for 3 days. Strain. Add 2 apple peels, 5 whole allspice. 2 cloves, 5 dashes of orange bitters and a cinnamon stick and let sit for 2 days. Strain. Dilute down to proof with water and syrup made from brown sugar and fig preserves. Should taste boldly of fig.

Infuse 1oz of coffee beans with 8oz of vermouth for no more than 4hrs.
