If you don’t feel like infusing bourbon with walnut, simply adding 2-3 dashes Fee Bros Black Walnut bitters will do. Sweet, with dark autumn notes.

A crazy dance of flavors.

History

Late one Saturday night, I finished my bartending work week and needed a nightcap. I was too tired to peruse cocktail books for a recipe, so I began to think about a few flavor combinations including Smith & Cross Rum-Campari in the Kingston Negroni, Campari-banana liqueur in the Banana Boulevardier, Fernet-banana in the Banana Toronto, and Campari-Fernet in the Eeyore's Requiem. As the dance of ingredients came together, I dubbed it the Kingston Watusi.

  • The S&C along with the fernet dominates; banana gets lost. Lots of adventurous directions.

stirred commented on 9/03/2022:

There's a lot going on here. As a pre-dinner drink it is both a tad too sweet and too bitter for me at the moment. I'm looking forward to how it evolves as the large rock melts.

Old Number One

1 oz Apple brandy (Aged)
1 oz Scotch
1 oz Sweet vermouth
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 Cherry (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with a cherry.

Notes

A Maroni Wireless riff created for the Fall 2022 issue of Edible Boston (& Edible Worcester)

History

When I was working on my cocktail article on apple drinks for the Fall 2022 issue of Edible Boston and Edible Worcester, I needed to create and test out a recipe. I wanted to riff on the Marconi Wireless – a cocktail "I love so much that I named one of my cats Marconi." I later wrote, "One of the earliest recipes that I fell in love with was the Marconi Wireless as an apple Manhattan of sorts. Here, I riffed on that classic by adding a Scotch element to the mix [and swapping the bitters from orange to Angostura] to generate the Old Number One named after the world's first telephone at Charles William Jr.'s house on Arlington Street in Somerville, MA." That location is under a mile from my home, so it has been part of our city's tapestry of pride along with Marshmallow Fluff.

Shawn C commented on 5/04/2023:

Potent heat at 79+ proof before ice dilution (Tanqueray base), with aggressive flavors. The earthy rhubarb bite comes through strongly with the juniper, and Averna provides some rich body. Both semi-sweet up front, and semi-bitter, the bitter intensified through the finish. Fragrant. Nothing boring about this intense and aggressive libation. For me it was a 3.5, but I can't see dropping it to a 3, so I'll round to 4.
