@endo as a purist, the ice cube is killing me. Have you tried it neat to compare?

@Jett129 welcome to the club

[goosehd]

@Jett129 …they forced me to succumb as well. Quite enjoyable and have had a few now.

Who would have thought that this place would be filled with a bunch of influencers…

First trip across the Atlantic.
First trip tuna fishing.
Countless laughs shared with friends from multiple countries.

…and most importantly, the desire to do so again!

[SourPower]

@Jett129 the perfect balance of bittersweet, you should try a boulevardier some time which is quite similar but uses bourbon rather than gin as the base spirit- more Manhattan esque.

[Tago Mago]

@SourPower @Jett129 or use mezcal instead of gin. I may have mentioned this at some point already

[SourPower]

@Tago-Mago love a Negroni Bianco. Had a bartender in Osaka make me a fantastic Paloma/Negroni riff with grapefruit, Lillet, Suze, pechuga, and mezcal!

@Jett129 I’m fairly new to Negronis too and I love em, but after trying many variations I definitely prefer the OG with gin. I’ll stick to varying the vermouth and gin. I love mezcal but my tastebuds don’t like that combo.

Happy Friday

@Tago-Mago What are your ideal percentages 33/33/33 or a variation? I'm finding I like a little less Vermouth and a bit more Gin/Bitters.

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd we tend to stick to the 1:1:1 ratio, irrespective of which gin/bitters/vermouth we use

[endo]

also tastes good in Portugal
