Yellowstone Gold Rush Cocktail Assessment
The pale yellow cocktail is kind of lemony up entrance, although that is shortly tempered by a shocking florality pushed by the honey. If I hadn’t recognized figs have been concerned I might have been stumped as to what was driving the berry-like notes, which might hit the palate a bit like blueberries in syrup, laced with elderflower, notably after a while with ice melting within the glass. And after absolutely learning the components listing, the fig nonetheless high quality stays curious and elusive, even when you’ve gotten time to sit down again and give it some thought.
In case you like an particularly floral cocktail, this iteration of a gold rush is for you. I personally would have most popular it with a darker, earthier honey tone and a extra current bourbon character — however maybe that may have been too conventional and boring.
