Fig and Espresso Boulevardier

Description

Fig and Espresso Boulevardier builds on flavours already at home beside whiskey: dried fruit, coffee, bitter orange and spice. Bourbon provides warmth, Campari supplies bitterness and sweet vermouth brings herbs and dark fruit.

Fig liqueur adds richness while a small measure of espresso cordial gives roasted depth without forcing a stirred cocktail to carry fresh coffee foam.

30 ml Bourbon
20 ml Campari
