The Last Word's bourbon-loving sibling
Created by Phil Ward at Death & Co in NYC. It's a riff on the classic "Last Word" cocktail, substituting bourbon and lemon for gin and lime.
This French herbal liqueur is made by Carthusian monks using 130 herbs. It's potent (55% ABV) and intensely flavored – essential to the drink.
Like the Paper Plane, this is an equal-parts cocktail. The balance is precise – don't deviate from the recipe.
