The Lighthouse
The Lighthouse by Matt Grippo
It's de-light-ful
Continuing the lighthouse theme, we have a cocktail from San Francisco bartender and manager at Blackbird, Matt Grippo. This was his first creation on the menu at the bar, and originally was barrel aged for 6 weeks. It’s equally satisfying and delicious as is, with plenty of balance between the rich aged rum and very dry sherry, hit of the lime and touch of almond and ginger sweetness from the falernum. It will provide just the right amount of light to any evening. Class dismissed – cheers!
An enlightening pair
