Re: What are you drinking right now?
A variation on a regular martini ive made specially for my Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuente smokes as i find them somewhat sweet tasting i mixed something to highlight that but also add depth with three other flavours bitter,sour,salty
A 2 1/2Oz gin dilution of tanqueray rangpur(1 1/2oz) and tanqueray No10 (1oz).
1/2Oz of dolin dry vermouth
Dash of orange bitters regans No5 is good but i use home made now.
Dash of lime bitters.
Stirred over ice with 2 olives as garnish the acidic lime helps balance the flavour of the smoke right till the end where the salty finish really goes well with the very last few puffs IMO.
Though you might need to drink 4 or 5 to make it to ration it to the last puff.
