We love taking trips to our local liquor store to see whats new and to gain inspiration for new cocktail experiments, this time our store had a beautiful window display of Gem & Bolt, when reading more about it, we realized it was a brand new Mezcal infused with damiana flowers, so we had to buy some, take it home & see what it mixed well with…of course! What we came up with was this super Smokey Mezcal Manhattan – cue feelings of being transported to an old school cigar bar. Its a perfect Evening cocktail, we urge you to go out and try some!
