El B-52 es un shot en capas IBA reconocido que secuencia cuidadosamente el Kahlúa, el Baileys Irish Cream y el Grand Marnier en capas distintas, creando un espectáculo visual tanto como una experiencia de bebida. A 19.29% ABV, ofrece una combinación dulce de café, crema y naranja que es rica, cálida e inmediatamente accesible.
History & Origins
The B-52 shot was reportedly created by Adam Honigman at the Banff Springs Hotel in Alberta, Canada, though its precise origin is disputed. It takes its name from the B-52 Stratofortress bomber aircraft, consistent with the trend of naming powerful drinks after military hardware. First documented in the late 1970s or early 1980s, it became an IBA-recognized New Era Drink and remains one of the most widely ordered layered shots globally.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Sweet roasted coffee from the Kahlúa, creamy vanilla and chocolate from the Baileys, and a warm orange brandy note from Grand Marnier. Palate: Each layer delivers a sequential flavor experience — coffee sweetness first, then a creamy chocolate middle, finishing with the orange-cognac richness of Grand Marnier. Finish: Warm, sweet, and medium-length with a lingering orange note.
Pro Tip
Pour each layer slowly over an inverted bar spoon to maintain clean separation, working from heaviest to lightest: Kahlúa, Baileys, Grand Marnier.
