Cocktail di Forte
Strong cocktails are the ones that make their presence felt straight away: higher-proof builds, bolder spirit bases, and less room for sweetness to hide behind. The Long Island Iced Tea shows how far a mixed drink can be pushed while still reading as a cocktail, while the Vieux Carré brings strength with more structure and spice. In the results you can compare base spirit, overall strength, format, technique, occasion, and flavour direction, from punchy party serves to short, stirred drinks that put the spirit first.
