disposable culture

1 oz Rye Whiskey (Rittenhouse)
1 oz Laird's Bonded Apple Brandy
1 oz Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Yellow Chartruese
1/4 oz Cinnamon Syrup
1 tsp Luxardo Maraschino
1 dash Peychaud's Bitters

Shake with ice and strain into a coupe.
Two Mondays prior, I returned to the set of online flashcards that I uncovered and was able to identify the Disposable Culture as part of the Franklin Mortgage Investment Co.'s 2011 menu. The combination of Yellow Chartreuse and cinnamon syrup balanced by lemon juice reminded me of the Howling Winds at Russell House Tavern while I was working there. Once prepared, the Disposable Culture greeted the senses with apple, nutty cherry, and cinnamon aromas. Next, a lemon and cherry sip was replaced by rye, apple, cinnamon, and nutty cherry flavors on the swallow.
