Scotch based modern cocktails are relatively rare, but Wildest Redhead manages to capture essence of this beautiful spirit and reveals its best and tastiest side. A truly wonderful modern cocktail.

As you probably have guessed, the base of this cocktail is scotch with notes of vanilla, oak, dried fruits and a hint of toffee. Pair that with a touch of tropical taste of allspice dram, rich cherry liqueur sweetness at the end and you get a complex flavour combination worth dying for. A healthy does of lemon juice freshens the cocktail up with a fragrant tart push, while addition of honey syrup establishes the balance and bridges the gap between scotch and other ingredients.

Wildest Redhead is a delightfully delicious sophisticated cocktail with stunning looks. Perfect cocktail for seasoned cocktail enthusiasts or anyone trying to get into a scotch game.
