Stir with ice and strain into a coupe.Two Saturdays ago, I was scanning the KindredCocktails database when I came across the Second Wind at Manhattan's Dead Rabbit circa 2014. A three rum Old Fashioned sweetened by sherry, Benedictine, and allspice dram pleasantly reminded me of a cross of my In the Navy with Rafa Garcia Febles' Conjurers & Concubines. In the glass, the Second Wind breezed to the nose with a caramel, rum funk, and allspice aroma. Next, grape, raisin, and molasses notes on the nose sailed into funky rum, dark rum, caramel-raisin, herbal, allspice, and chocolate flavors on the swallow.
