1 oz Salers Gentiane (or Suze, skinny)

I believe they started with Suze but now use Salers. I make it with Suze and it tastes dandy.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is meant with "down" in instructions?

Zachary Pearson commented on 6/08/2021:

Generally speaking, "down" means chilled and in a rocks/old fashioned glass. Thanks, Zachary

If you really like the flavor of blanc agricole, then this is a nicely balanced drink, with the agricole front and center, and the other flavors accenting. If, like me, the smell of blanc agricole makes you gag and you need to tame it with some other strong players, this is not the drink you are looking for.

3⁄4 oz Campari
3⁄4 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
3⁄4 oz Dry vermouth

History

Originally a drink of equal parts Fir/Campari/Chartreuse, with suggestions for alternative ratios (2:1:1 and 2:2:1). Dried out and lengthened via vermouth following feedback.

This is actually similar to a standard drink in the Boston area that originated at Chez Henri in Cambridge:

http://www.kindredcocktails.com/cocktail/shiver

The added chartreuse obviously makes a big difference, but interesting that you added a grapefruit peel - unless this was meant as a riff on that, of course!

DrunkLab commented on 8/23/2013:

I made it as a riff on the End of the Road, which I hoped to give a nod to via the name: http://www.kindredcocktails.com/cocktail/end-of-the-road

But you're right, it does share a lot with the Shiver! A drink that's very high on my to-try list. I wasn't thinking of it when I added a grapefruit twist, but the reasoning's the same: grapefruit has terpenes which highlight the woodsy qualities of the Doug Fir while drawing out the fruity notes of the Campari.

One advantage that the Shiver has over this drink is all that juice. This is a very intense drink, not for everybody, and benefits from a good stir or even shake.I I've found people enjoy it as written, but some might prefer it cut with grapefruit juice, or even, as Stew Ellington suggested to me elsewhere, sweet vermouth.

Dan commented on 1/21/2015:

Increased dry vermouth to 1 oz to help sugar balance. This is a nice drink, but given the price of the ingredients, I think I prefer the Shiver. I'd like to try a mash-up, using tart grapefruit juice in lieu of dry vermouth.

Mixin In Ansley commented on 2/04/2023:

Subbed Bruto Americano for Campari and it worked. Very Adirondacks’ winter lake vibe.

aphonik commented on 1/30/2014:

Randomly stumbled upon this drink and gave it another whirl and I still like it. I think Rittenhouse is the way to go (not sure why I went with Overholt initially) and I used PX sherry instead of madeira since my bottle of Blandy's is a bit past it's prime. Also skipped the rock and served it down. Not bad.

There is a high star anise flavor to this cocktail. This one really grew on me.

Wee Paunch

2 oz Irish whiskey
1 sli Lemon (lemon coin; a cut of peel and pith containing a bit of flesh and juice)
1⁄2 t Barley malt syrup
Instructions

Build in glass over ice, stir, rest, sip.

Notes

Commercially available barley malt syrup is optimized for baking, not stirring, so to make it work in this drink I heat a bit of it in water on the stove until the color and flavor have mixed in. Malta sodas, such as Goya and India, have a similar flavor and can be substituted, but be careful as they are both very sweet and overwhelmingly flavorful. You want the barley to accent the whiskey, not engulf it.

History

Paddy's Margarita: 2 oz Irish | 1/2 oz lemon juice | 1/2 oz barley malt syrup | 1/2 oz egg white | 1 dash Boker's bitters | dry shake, shake, strain, up, top with a few drops of bitters.

The Count De Grace

3⁄4 oz Mezcal, Del Maguey Chichicapa
3⁄4 oz Amaro Abano, Luxardo
3⁄4 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
Instructions

Stir over ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass.

Notes

A less expensive Mezcal may certainly be used, but don't skimp!

History

Started out as a loose Negroni variation and ended up similar to the Coup De Grace (http://www.kindredcocktails.com/cocktail/coup-de-grace?f=2). Especially since Amaro Abano has strong cardamom notes.
