The Becherovka added some extra spice to it especially a lot of clove. Not sure what the burning really did other than perhaps add some caramel notes and change the liqueur flavor profile a little -- I think it was more for bar theater than a necessity. Pimento dram, while rather different from Becherovka could take the drink in a good but different direction. Then again, the relatively stripped down version that Ben made me was great to drink and more rum-forward and unfogged in its rum-ness.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-41805763625345081792009-04-24T16:38:00.000-04:002009-04-24T16:38:00.000-04:00Fred, I'm curious to try a recipe like this (or th...Fred, I'm curious to try a recipe like this (or the 4-rum old fashioned from Ben you posted about more recently). Do you think the chartreuse added to this drink, or did it fog up the rum-ness? I have no Berchecova, but I thought about flaming either some chartreuse or some lemon hart 151, and maybe using some of my homemade pimento dram as one of the spirit components. In any event, this has given me some fun ideas to play around with.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08574437059524532626noreply@blogger.com
