Notes
From the drink’s creator, Nat Yao:
“Taking inspiration from its namesake, the cocktail is punchy at first however its gentle elegance opens up with each sip. A contemporary imagination of a Sazerac, its beauty shines through its thoughtful simplicity.
“It is a drink designed to be enjoyed for all occasions and season, best savoured after a day of hard toil.”
