Strong Classic

Victor é um coquetel clássico de três ingredientes feito com gin, vermute doce e brandy, agitado e coado em uma taça de coquetel. Pertence à família dos coquetéis mexidos ou agitados de destilado e vermute comuns na bartendência do início do século XX, onde pequenas quantidades de um destilado secundário eram usadas para adicionar profundidade a uma base de gin e vermute. A adição de brandy confere à estrutura adjacente ao Martini uma camada extra de fruta e calor.

History & Origins

The Victor cocktail appeared in cocktail guides of the 1920s and 1930s, reflecting the era's enthusiasm for gin and vermouth combinations enriched by additional spirits. Its origin is disputed, though it is likely an English or American creation from the golden age of classic cocktail culture. The name has no documented connection to any specific person named Victor.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Gin's juniper with sweet vermouth's herbal, dried fruit complexity and a warm, fruity brandy note in the background. Palate: Dry and spirit-forward, with gin's botanicals leading, sweet vermouth adding wine depth and a touch of sweetness, and brandy contributing a fruity, warming richness that rounds the profile. Finish: Dry, moderately bitter, and warming with lingering gin botanicals and brandy fruit.

Pro Tip

Stir rather than shake for a cleaner, more transparent drink, and use a quality VSOP brandy rather than a young cognac for the most harmonious result.
