Strong Shot

그림 리퍼는 칼루아와 오버프루프 바카디 151 럼, 그리고 소량의 그레나딘을 결합한 강렬한 커피-럼 칵테일로, 올드 패션드 글라스에 얼음을 넣어 서빙됩니다. 151 프루프 럼은 일반적인 칼루아 기반 음료보다 훨씬 높은 도수를 자랑하며, 강렬하고 쌉쌀달콤하며 도수 높은 칵테일을 만들어냅니다. 그레나딘은 얼음에 희미한 붉은 빛을 더합니다.

History & Origins

The Grim Reaper is a contemporary American bar creation with no documented single origin, typical of the high-proof, theatrically named drinks that emerged in American bar culture during the 1980s and 1990s. The name reflects the drink's dangerously high ABV, which approaches the ABV of many neat spirits despite containing multiple components. Its authorship is disputed.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: rich coffee and vanilla from the Kahlúa, sharp overproof rum, and a faint pomegranate sweetness from the grenadine. Palate: intensely strong and warming with the 151 rum's fire upfront, tempered slightly by the Kahlúa's coffee sweetness. Finish: long, fiery, and bittersweet with a lingering coffee-rum heat and a hint of pomegranate.

Pro Tip

Add the grenadine over the ice at the end as specified so it creates a visually striking red tint on the ice — do not stir it in as it is intended as a visual effect rather than a flavor driver.
