The Chicago is a luxurious drink with both Champagne and Cognac in it.
Cognac
Upper Crust
A riff off the Brandy Crusta, this is the Upper Crust by Sother Teague.
Limitations No. 2
A cocktail born out of limitations – using only ingredients on hand. This is Limitations No. 2.
Transfusion No. 1
Happy Halloween! Time for Transfusion No. 1 from bar Canon in Seattle.
Assembly Cocktail
Cognac in cocktails – yes we think it works really well. There is something luxurious with Cognac isn’t there, just like with Champagne.
May Daisy
May Daisy, by Phil Ward is a Cognac based cocktail, with green Chartreuse and lemon as partners.
Sweet Talking Son
The Sweet Talking Son cocktail gets such a vibrant colour from the brandy and the Peychaud’s.
I’m On a Boat
We served the drink in a huge Cognac coupe to really get the feeling of an ocean. Better anchor the cocktail tightly before the first sip!
Roman Holiday
The Roman Holiday might not sound like a winter cocktail, but look close in the ingredients list and you’ll see the chili liqueur. And when this spicy spirit is combined with Cognac, rum and orange juice it actually feels like winter.
Rubberband Man
When we found the recipe we were primarily intrigued by two things; the funny name of the cocktail and the Cardamaro content. Cardamaro is a low ABV amaro with a really nice flavour, almost of ginger bread but slightly more bitter.
Legend
The Legend is an interesting one. It mixes rum and Cognac, something you don’t see too often. But then also some other high quality ingredients are added. Lustau sherry and amaro Nonino are both such great spirits on their own, and combined with the rum and the Cognac a legend is definitely born.
Vieux Carré
Does anybody remember our barrel-aged Vieux Carré? Well, it’s now out of the barrel after spending four weeks inside of it.
