“I wanted to make a Boulevardier where the bourbon does all the talking without the sweet vermouth butting in on the conversation. Since Legent has such distinct dark chocolate and vanilla flavors, I wanted to avoid doing a dessert-themed cocktail and instead let the natural beauty of the fall spice notes of Legent have more of a forward taste. Bitter, chocolate, some orange, nutmeg, and a dash of artichoke, this drink is for those who want a powerful punch to the taste buds while also giving your tongue a flavor it will cherish. Perfect for winter days at the cabin or if you need a pick-me-up after a hard day of work. I prefer this drink with a nice cacao-flavored cigar. It reminds me of playing pool with my father and enjoying whiskey for the first time with him. It reminds you of what is important about cocktails—the spirit itself.”
