The tipperary cocktail
I was recommended to try this cocktail when I went on my trip to Ireland last year, but unfortunately did not find the time to order one while I was there.
Thankfully, I do have all the ingredients at home so I thought now was a good a time as any to try one — and it did not disappoint.
I gave it a rating of 8.4/10, however I believe I would have scored it higher if I used a bolder vermouth.
This specific recipe let the whiskey and chartreuse really shine, but it is quite dry. If that’s what you’re into, stick to a more delicate style like the Dolin I used.
Otherwise, swap for Torino or Spanish style instead for more body, sweetness, and complexity.
Slainte.
