Smoking Mountains
*Smoking Mountains* by Rosie from the Dancing Moose
50ml La Medida Espadin Mezcal infused with Charcoal
2 dashes of island fruit Bitters
25ml Rootsmastic
20ml Ancho Reyes Chiles
15ml Vermouth Punt e Mes
2 dashes Angostura Bitters
Stirred and strained into a woodchip smoked coupette
Rosie told the beautiful yet tragic myth from Aztec times of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl (see blog), warming our hearts in preparation for tasting her magical concoction.
Rosie’s twist on a Manhattan was just gorgeous and if serene was a taste, then her cocktail was that and more with delicate complexity and our Mezcal being the dominator.
Salud!
