Top Notes For
S.S. Mandani

Just to be clear, I loathe the childlike art class paint on the bottle.

Steely, subtle, the crisp of a pear, lilacs in the bouquet.

Candied ginger, fresh meadow grass, a welcome, sweetness that plays off the silky mouthfeel. Reminds me of the smoothness and balance that is achieved in well made cocktails that use milk washes (what used to be one of my favorite bars in the city, MACE, when it was run by Christian, a worthy and adept Bar Manager in Alphabet City — he’s now at Mister Paradise).

Also, lemongrass.

I quite like this take.
