What bar is this from?
Tiger Mama. It was in the tag (and in chronological order after another drink I had there). I'll edit the entry to reflect that as well.
@frederic, LOL I never would've ssumed that #tigermama was the name of a biz... because I don't know what you do in your free time! LOL
This will be our second time serving The Long Eclipse at my present place of employ. It was well-received just coming out of CoViD, and I expect it will be gangbusters this time around. Being in Pennsylvania, we always need to adapt recipes to what our LCB is willing to allow us to purchase--whether in-store or special-order. And I hope that I do a pretty good job of dialing in the bartender's original intention here!
Presently, we're stuck using Sfumato (sadly, no more Zucca)... Real McCoy 5-yr, bolstered with a bit of Zaya. Waiting for the Sfumato to arrive to test it out.
I prefer Sfumato for my bitter drinks and Zucca for my fruity ones. I only have Sfumato at home but have worked at places that have had both.
Tiger Mama was an Asian-themed restaurant (a celebrity non-Asian chef though) with great tiki and tropical drinks. It sadly didn't make it through the Pandemic and the chef/restaurant group rebranded the space into a pizza place called Tenderonis.
