Two Wednesdays ago, I turned to
Food & Wine: Cocktails 2015 for nightcap ideas. There, I found The Smartest Man Alive which appeared like an earthier Goldrush; it was created by Seattle's Chris Elford who I had the pleasure of meeting at Camp Runamok last month. Once prepared, it offered a floral and earthy gentian aroma. Next, honey balanced by lemon on the sip led into rye and a honey-gentian combination on the swallow.
