Hey guys small edit! In the video I said Fernet uses 17% of the world’s Saffron but it’s actually a whopping 75% which is pretty amazing and unbelievable!
In the LA area and very interested in working on my tasting. If you're open and not inundated with other requests I'd love to join in.
Maybe 75% of export but it's cheaper in Iran so they probably use a lot of it
Would love to know more about fernet, we drink so much of it behind the bar but it’s just a black sheep
I used Saffron in a Spanish Albariño vermouth recently. Really starting to love the flavor. I really need to pick up a bottle of Fernet. You've got my hopes high
I think these drinks were originally medicinal not necessarily recreational, maybe more insight on that?
"When you say cough syrup, nobody is gonna think that's good".
Meanwhile, Islay whisky drinkers: "Mmh, this is amazing - tastes like burnt rubber, tar, band aids and decaying crustaceans".
Good point 😂
I love that laphroaig 10 bandaid.
Lmao this is so true
Pretty cool that you got Tony Hawk on as a guest taster. And to his credit, orange cough syrup is the best tasting cough syrup.
"Do a kickflip!"
Disagree! Grape Delsym is my favorite flavor of cough syrup.
That's who Marius looks like! I was blanking.
@@nslayton5 don't let Tony Hawk ever catch you blanking on who he is!
William Katt The Greatest American Hero. Uncanny..
Man, round of applause for this episode. The concept and recipes are so good, that it contained a bartender who doesn't drink, and a taster who has the palate of a 6 year old and I still watched the whole thing. Bravo
Loved the spontaneous and unbiased analysis of Marius, it gives a better picture of what a non professional bartender AKA "client" should find in cocktails.
I'm torn, because I want legitimate tasting notes, but also this was hilarious
this is perfect, because it's your average person trying cocktails. when i serve fernet to friends, they say that's disgusting. when i serve fernet to me, i say thats wonderful
Would be fun to hear Marius’ take going forward. First the drink is described as “Eww” and “like a foot” and then Leandro chimes in with “I taste cardamom and bitter cherry and a hint of pineapple.”
The show has jumped to another level of production quality. Amazing
Marius is fantastic, always love when he is actively involved in videos. It is cool knowing a fellow Norwegian works with such a great channel. keep it up guys :)))
One of the most honest tasting videos I've ever watched. Gotta thank your friend for his honesty and transparency!
”Slappy Poo, Crushy Pants“ would make me smile on the shittiest day.
You know what, after finishing this video, I really like Marius' tasting notes.
We're not all as perceptive and sophisticated as Leandro's palette, and I felt that Marius could be an objective taster that is closer to us, mere mortals. 😅
That is not to say that Leandro's tasting notes aren't more important to hear in the other videos, because I do look for his professional guidance in understanding the subtle differences in aromas and flavors. But hearing Marius' reactions, PARTICULARLY for Fernet Branca cocktails, was really perfect!
Thank you both! ❤
I love how much you have grown since the start. This was a very fun episode!
My friend got me hooked on fernet and coke. He grew up on it in Argentina. It oddly reminds me of my grandpa smothering me with Vicks vapor rub. Never tell grandpa you don't feel good.
😂
Dang coke is addictive man stay off it
of the hundreds of cocktail videos i’ve seen this one might still be my favorite. you guys are so funny. and harry’s midnight snack is a great drink!
Love the comments at the top of the videos. Way to have a good sense of humor!
This video is a DREAM for the fans of this channel hahaha. Love you guys!
Great video! I’ve been wanting to try Fernet Branca now I have what sounds and looks like really good cocktails to make with it. Thank you!!
I love your interactions with Marius! Interesting cocktails. I love After Eight, so I know which one I'll be making first.
This is some excellent editing and production. you’ve stepped your game up! but not that I didn’t like your guys’s show before!
How lovely to see Marius in this video!
I don't think I've ever seen him go in fron of the camera! That's so nice to finally see the face behind the director's voice. 😊
this was great to see the interactions between you and Marius. Fernet is one of those Amaros that takes some getting used to. And these are three great examples of ways to use it :)
I have been acquiring a taste for Fernet Branca for several years. So far, I've used most of what I've bought to make Toronto cocktails with Fernet Branca and maple syrup. This video will broaden my Fernet repertoire.
This was a really great video! Ive been racking my brain on how to use fernet branca in a cocktail where the fernet doens not overpower the other ingredients. I tried making the midnight stinger and it was wonderful, i did not have any mint on hand so i used a lemon peel and it really helped bring out the lemon juice in the cocktail. Definitely on my top 5 list of TEB videos. Keep up the videos, you guys are making great content!
Thanks
Hanky Panky
I've been away for a while, the production quality has gone way up! I love the new looks guys!
Love your Videos !! Great Energy
You guys had me cracking up 🤣 over your friends taste 👅 testing fernet cocktails especially the last one he tried, that you forgot the sea salt 🧂 in. Great video cannot wait to try them! Thank you!
This is perfect I literally just bought my first bottle of fernet yesterday! Destiny is real 🤩
Inspired me to try Fernet again, been on the fence for a while and now I'm all in
You guys are awesome! Happy I came across you two ☺
My favorite video yet - I think we need a session to see just how pissed Marius can make Leandro…the banter is priceless…especially with Leandro losing all editorial control here. That said, I’m making all of these drinks and they seem bomb!
I'm a huge fan of fernet but good recipes are so hard to come by so I'm super stoked to try these!
The "fantastisch" was great. Greetings from Germany.
Been here from 20000 subs and now you have 10 times more ... great progress. Greetings from Germany.
Happy to give these a try, because I tried Fernet once and never again!
I just picked up a bottle to do Fernet and Coke. Can't wait to try these, too!
Hilariously timely. Just bought my first bottle of this yesterday. Tasted it, and was like ‘….and……….back of the shelf. The VERY back of the shelf. Alas, new inspiration.
Love how on the 3rd one Leandro said "I'm not going to tell you what you should taste" but on the Midnight Stinger he just couldn't help but give expected exact taste profile with every detail of what he should taste 😂😂😂 so funny!
That Harry’s midnight snack sounds amazing! I’m working on a coconut/ cola/ fernet drink myself. I’m not bad ass enough to drink fernet straight, but I do like it in cocktails. I’ll be trying these ones out for sure.
The last one sounds absolutely delicious!
I have just made the first one from this video, "Follow the black rabbit", and I really like it!
I put only 0.5 instead of 0.75 oz Fernet (because Marius made me worried that it will taste too much like cough syrup 😂), but it's really good!!!
And I squeezed fresh orange juice and lemon juice, which obviously improves it greatly.
Thank you, Leandro and Marius!
Love the intro lately! Great job on it!
I’m a bartender in LA and a longtime fan! I’d love to be a guest taster.
Leandro looking very healthy. Looks like the cleanse is doing good things. No negativity here, just credit where credit due!
I’m in LA , mixology lover and I would love to come taste your cocktails 💃🏼
Suggestion for fernet branca cocktail: Macunaima, the frontrunner "modern classic" in Brazil
I was going to say that same! Make some Macunaíma 🙏🙏🙏
"Mmmm... it tastes like orangey cough syrup!" xD
This is years ago, but I'm still getting a great laugh out of it.
Sorry, but no. I just can’t cope with it.
Marius is like the neighbour in “Home Improvement “ ……. now that we’ve seen him it spoils the magic 😆😆
Another great video, in right time too xD Just got a bottle of Fernet Branca s2
I love his descriptions, you should make it a regular thing that he tastes a cocktail and describes it before you do.
The Midnight Snack is wonderful! My favorite Fernet Branca drink is just 1/2 oz demerara syrup, 1 oz Fernet Branca, drank as a digestive. To me it tastes like a Recola Cough Drop which I also find delicious.
One of my favourite cocktails with Fernet is the Dark & Moody Daiquiri.
45ml Fernet Branca
15ml Green Chartreuse
15ml Simple syrup
15ml Lime juice
I just made this before even finishing this episode and trying the cocktails Leandro made. Woah. WOAH. I understand the hype behind fernet now!
To me the black rabbit opens up very citrusy from the gin, orange, and lemon; has a nice warm sweetness from the maple, which transforms into an herbaceous finish which plays well with the orange. The minty nature of the fernet surprisingly doesn’t clash with how orangey the drink is at all, and the maple flavor is hard to pick out from behind the bold fernet. It has me interested in using maple with fernet more often.
Just tried the Midnight Stinger and DANG!!! So good! I’ve never had fernet before, but it might be my new thing.
Perfect timing, I just picked up a bottle.
I knew you would say that, Marius. You're wrong of course but brilliant answer! Good to see you in the vid, not just hear you. Du ser veldig norsk ut også, det er bra! :)
Hi Leandro, I made a Follow the Black Rabbit at the weekend. It was delicious, a great use of the Fernet Branca. Nick from York
“What do you want from me?” 😂😂😂
Made the Follow that Black Rabbit and forgot the lemon juice. Got some REALLY weird thickness to it, but adding the lemon really drew it back together into a drink that feels like menthol... Hard to describe. I like it.
I havnt tried it in a cocktail yet but tasting it with my guests as they suffer through it has begun to give me a better appreciation for it. I always warn them before hand but they have no idea what is in store.
Just made the midnight stinger. Intense fernet, but just balanced by the borubon/lemon combo. Very interesting!
Loved this
My favorite Fernet cocktail is the Hanky Panky! I think you should have had this one on your show today😊
You are best bartender chef and lecturer I have come across, such long explanations with great content, 👍, I watch Steve, you and Tipsy..that's my menu before parties or having time with friends..Thanks for coming across.. You are from Australia too?
I have fond memories of Triaminic as a kid. "A good orange cough syrup" definitely is more enticing than some other things I've tasted.
I’m in Long Beach, Cá and I’m always looking to try new cocktails. I also bartend at two locations so I’m frequently drinking. 😆
Enjoyed the honest reaction from Marius - awesome! Some things taste good and others not so much.
I’m of the opinion - if you have to develop a taste for something I’ll pass for something else I like right away. Life’s short! Great video !
I think it's great in a whole range of drinks. This weekend I'm making a milk clarified Industry Sour just to see how it turns out.
Hi Leandro, I must have noted this recipe when you posted it, but I have just made one for my oldest son and one for myself. It is beautifully refreshing and flavoursome. I used Warners Rhubarb gin in it and that may have enhanced the alround taste.
Follow the white rabbit will be a repeated drink as long as I have a bottle & half of Fernet Branca left.
Nick from York
I really enjoy Fernet Branca! Isn't "Amaro" fabulous by Brad Parsons? It is one of the best books I have read. I love discerning the flavours in Fernet. It took a short while of gradually getting used to the many flavours in this wonderful amaro. Bitter and herbaceous have taken over for my spirits of choice. It is so interesting how the palette evolves! Terrific show Leondro!!
Hey I really liked the short cutaways for each ingredient, like we didn't have to watch you squeeze the orange like other channels do, we get the point haha
Be nice, Marius was excellent
Excellent!!! In Argentina for us, fernet its the national drink and theres a huge cult around him, but we drinking with coke mostly also theres an old one called FERROVIARIO (sweet vermouth, club soda and fernet)
LOL at the cough syrup/tobacco discussion!
HTD’s Fernet branca video is what got me put on to Bartube a year or so ago.
One of my favorite Fernet cocktails was one we had at work: a Fernet Painkiller! It had a bourbon/rye mix, fernet, pineapple juice, OJ, and cream of coconut. The spiciness of the rye and Fernet was mellowed out by the creaminess of the coconut and gave the drink a warm winter kind of flavor and feeling.
Do you have the recipe please??
@@jamesstockley3103 if I remember correctly (and it's been a while) it was something along the lines of:
.75 Oz Rye
.75 Oz bourbon
.25 Oz Fernet
1.25 Oz pineapple juice
1.25 Oz Fresh OJ
1.25 Oz house Cream of Coconut
There may have been some bitters thrown in somewhere
On the nose with the After 8, Marius!! (I love a shot of just Fernet and that Cacao 3:1 for exactly the same effect).
Oh dang! Good to know Marius isn’t just a disembodied voice
Lost it the first time I saw him on camera. Need to see more of him
i love that the patreon was able to bring tony hawk on to the show.. i need more
Marius turning Italian at 12.08 was great!
Made an Industry Sour two days ago (guess because of which channel) and have to say: it wasn’t bad! 😄
Going to try these as well!
Fernet is such an interesting product. I guess I’ll have to make all of these so that I can have actual tasting notes.
fernet branca was gradually lowered in abv from 46% to 39% worldwide, so yeah you don't have the proofier version but neither do we in italy
Yaaay a Marius video!!!
Btw there has just been a Cocktail Chemistry video this month with Fernet + orange juice and his reaction was the same as Marius's, that this combo tastes like a disguisting medicine. lol Now I gotta try it, just for good measure.
Fantastisch!!!
Enjoying the rabbit one fighting off a head cold. Might add some allspice dram to the next one and cut back the gin a bit just to mix it up
Appreciate the shout out! At least I can say I'm a better taste tester then Marius!!!😂😂😂😂
Fernet is the best digestive Amaro ever.
In Italy we use to drink it cold from the fridge after lunch or dinner.
Branca menta it's awesome too
My favorite bartender is Phil ward, his cocktails are so wonderfully balanced its not even funny
LOVED that you did a Fernet video, thanks! Been savouring a bottle for a while now, can't wait to try these :)
Marius... what can be said... we still love you xD P.S. - Can we have a blind taste test of Marius tasting salt, sugar, lemon etc to see if his palate is okay? Worried about you Mar...
I know, I am late to the party, but I had to throw in my Fernet thing. Industry Sours are a regular for me at home, and I could not imagine life without them.
Recently went to a bar that had a martini with fernet branca. That drink was incredible. From the menu I rememeber it had: gin, sweat vermouth, fernet, orange juice and probably something else too.
finally a justification for the amount of fernet we drink at work in the industry lmao
i always buy people shots of it at the end of a night while I close up a bar if they're stuck around. wakes ya up right away.
most relatable content is you imitating a baby saying they don't like fernet
Those tasting notes are what I’m here for now
I enjoyed "Harry's Midnight Snack" and am making the "Midnight Stinger" tonight!
My fave Fernet-using session drink:
Can of cola
Juice of one lime
.25 oz Fernet
1.5 oz of Demerara rum
Up the Fernet if you feel like it. It’s a rum and coke with the lime and Fernet cutting the sweetness.
I personally think fernet tastes like listerine. It is good in cocktails but I can totally see that drink tasting like orange cough syrup 😋 I just picked up a bottle a couple days ago and a bottle of chinola. The first cocktail I made with them was delicious. Found it online .75oz chinola, 1 oz Havana club, 1 oz 3 star plantation, 1 oz lime juice, 1 oz simple syrup, 8 mint leaves and a .25 oz float of fernet branca. Smack the mint leaves and throw in a Collins glass. Shake all the rest but the fernet float. Top with lots of ice. It was so good I had 2.
I would strongly suggest Marius to try the Bottecchia from Kevin Burke of Colt & Gray. I have to keep Fernet out of the house because otherwise I would finish the bottle in like 3 days with this cocktail. lol Great vid!
Drinking with the Barfly guys seems like it would be good fun. I kinda want to watch them drink 'complex evolution' cocktails and have Marius give his notes, then have Leandro give his lol
Step 1. Use Fernet Branca
Step 2. Love it.
I use this for a sour stomach and for hangovers. Give it 20 minutes and all stomach issues go away. I do like the roofing tar flavor.
