  • Made with reposado. Very tasty. The mezcal is very subtle. Nice rich cherry flavor. Makes a big drink. — ★★★★

Fantastic drink. On a typographical note, the creator's name is spelled "Robitschek" I believe

jaba commented on 6/27/2014:

I don't have any Anejo. Is it worth trying with a Reposado or will it be too different?

bza commented on 6/27/2014:

Haven't tried it with reposado, but imo there are no two more different age statements than reposado and añejo, they are practically different liquors. That said, I don't see why reposado wouldn't work in this drink as long as you had something hefty and peppery rather than smooth and light. It would definitely be a different drink, though.

bza commented on 6/27/2014:

Fixed, thanks, and I love that you proofread cocktail recipes at 8 in the morning. Keep on!

DrunkLab commented on 8/15/2014:

This drink is sometimes made in equal parts with mezcal as the base spirit and no tequila (or rinse). I prefer it that way, but in either version it's a top shelf drink. (Source: asking at The NoMad.)

Craig E commented on 1/14/2016:

Probably meant to be shaken, no?

readrumitome commented on 2/08/2021:

Really enjoyed; well- balanced & interesting. 

Mixin In Ansley commented on 4/19/2024:

Unusual- as vegetal as it is cherry. I appreciate something more than a 3 oz poor: one drink and done.

christina in tacoma commented on 11/03/2011:

Out of curiosity I made toasted hazlenut orgeat, though I don't think it is really necessary. This is similar to (but not quite as good as) the Golden Gate Swizzle. I used Canton in place of ginger syrup, Rhum Barbancourt 8 yr rum, and strained it as I wasn't wanting the slushy preparation.

joep commented on 3/27/2012:

Love this beverage, Sother says you can use regular orgeat in place of the hazelnut and the drink won't suffer. It's really more of a float of Peychauds, the top sixth of the finalized drink should be red.

gshellen commented on 9/09/2012:

I used regular (homemade) orgeat, and did the Peychaud's as a float (though not quite 1/6—wasn't ready for that), and it's a lovely drink.

The Carpano and lemon soften the edges of this drink but the Fernet Branca definitely dominates. Really nice.

AmyJ commented on 3/05/2013:

Was looking for a beer replacement to have with BBQ. Made this a 'long' drink with more soda and evened out the portions of Fernet and vermouth. Worked well.

Neyah's White Manhattan, Tweaked
