The drink that Andrea requested at Estragon was a Scotch and nutty number that bartender Sahil Mehta later named Juglans Regia. I was familiar with the Latin name for walnuts from Craigie on Main's Jupiter's Acorn Flip. Here, instead of a Flip, it was more of a Bobbie Burns using a nutty sherry as the wine element. Once prepared, the twist donated orange oils on top of the dark grape notes and hint of smoke on the nose. Next, the sip offered dry grape and malt notes, and finally, smoky and nutty flavors filled the swallow.
