continuing the stream of consciousness posts:
one of my favorite bars (all-around ambience, quality of drink, variety, value, food) is the Rum Club in Portland, and they've got a rum old-fashioned that blew me away the first time i had it
i don't have their recipe, but i put something together from my own stuff that's a pretty complex and delicious sipper, though it packs a hell of a punch
- 1 oz. Appleton Estate Reserve (sub other Jamaican or similar)
- 1 oz. Havana Club 7 Añejo (sub Flor de Caña 7 or similar)
- 0.5 oz. Wray and Nephew White Overproof
- 0.5 oz. Lemon Hart 151 (sub Hamilton 151)
- .25 oz. Licor 43 (sub something like orgeat or falernum for different profile)
- splash of Batavia Arrack (can omit)
- 1-2 dashes tiki bitters
stir and strain
