Blackthorn No. 3
🥃 Serve in: Coupe Glass
Dry vermouth and a whisper of absinthe meet Irish whiskey here, along with old-school Boker's-style bitters in this riff on the classic Blackthorn. That absinthe adds an herbal lift that plays well against Irish whiskey's lighter, smoother character. Stirred and served up, a good showcase for how Irish whiskey holds its own in stirred, spirit-forward cocktails. A lesser-known classic worth seeking out.
