Strong Classic

O Algonquin é um coquetel de whisky que combina whisky blended com vermute seco e um toque de suco de abacaxi, criando uma combinação incomum mas agradável de destilado de grãos, vinho herbal e fruta tropical. A 17,38% ABV, é uma bebida liderada pelo destilado com suco de fruta suficiente para suavizar as arestas sem dominar o caráter do whisky.

History & Origins

The Algonquin is named after the Algonquin Hotel in New York City, famous in the 1920s and 1930s as the meeting place of the Algonquin Round Table — a celebrated group of writers and wits including Dorothy Parker. The cocktail was reportedly served at the hotel during the golden age of American literary culture, though the precise recipe's origin is disputed. It remains a drink associated with wit, sophistication, and New York intellectual life.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Grain whiskey warmth, herbal notes from the dry vermouth, and a light pineapple sweetness. Palate: The blended whiskey provides a smooth, slightly sweet base; dry vermouth adds herbal complexity and a wine-like dryness; pineapple juice contributes a tropical lift that softens the spirit. Finish: Medium-length, slightly dry, with lingering fruit and grain notes.

Pro Tip

Shake rather than stir to fully integrate the pineapple juice with the whiskey and vermouth, creating a unified flavor profile.
