  • A little intense but very unique and interesting
  • Short on lime so made a half recipe, which I think actually is a good volume for this intense mix. — ★★★★

Curated to improve attribution and add a substitution idea for Mistral aged pisco.

  • Increased the Laird's to .75 oz for a little more bite, and the bitters to 2 dashes for a little more depth. With those changes, 4.

  • tried without the sage and used Redwood Empire Bourb
  • really more like a 3 for me but I think it's just cause I don't like sage in cocktails, which is more of a personal taste thing
  • really pretty good, even without the sage, clove, nutmeg

poikiloid commented on 11/03/2019:

Very good!! Didn't have the dram so just soaked ground allspice & nutmeg in the bourbon (use coffee filter) for 5 min. Simplify it and just use 1/4 oz maple syrup instead of mixing up a solution with water. Used regular lemon juice, but curious to try with Meyer. Also, added half an egg white to give it a little foam.


corrupto commented on 4/11/2021:

Been a cocktail fan for 25 years. This is one of my favorites. The only mod I make is using regular instead of meyer lemon juice (availability).


Bog Harvest 2

2 oz White whiskey, Bully Boy
1 oz Vermut Rojo, Lacuesta Rojo (A lighter style, sherry-like Spanish sweet vermouth. An oloroso or manzanilla would work as well.)
Instructions

Combine over ice in mixing glass, stir for 30 seconds, strain into chilled coupe.

Notes

If you don't fancy shrub but can get hold of some of Clear Creek's Oregon Cranberry Liqueur, try this. You get the same tangy fruity winey bitter notes with a nice white whiskey backbone. Great for Turkey Day.
