    I have tried this cocktail with Hennessy vsop and added to my bar menu, it is just great. But I added 10ml simple syrup and 10ml lemon juice, which gave it smoother taste in my opinion.

    I was recently able to obtain a bottle of the Bogart's bitters, and with the Jerry Thomas recipe for the Japanese cocktail right on the box, I was immediately reminded of this episode and had to try it the historical way. I have to say I really like the historical version. Stirring or shaking with citrus peals is a technique that seems to have disappeared from modern techniques. But after trying this cocktail, stirred with lemon peal (also reminded of the Deshler here, featured in Anders Erickson's channel), I feel like this is a technique that should still have its place in modern cocktails. This cocktail has shown to me that it's still a great way to get essential oils of citrus directly into a cocktail without the use of sour juices, or just on the nose with a spritz on top.

    • @KevinKos
      @KevinKos  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, Josh! I really enjoy the respect shown by so many in the current cocktail renaissance to the origins of these classics and trying to find the information that was lost in time. It's not as strong in flavor as some of the bitters we know today, but it certainly has its place. If for nothing else, the beautiful bottle and the history behind it! Cheers, my friend!

    Hello! I've not had this drink, but I have enjoyed the "Improved Japanese Cocktail." I build it with 2 oz PF Cognac, .75 Orgeat, .75. Lemon Juice, and 3 dashes Peychaud's. A very nice drink, indeed. (I've seen recipes that call for a different ratio, with 1 oz each of the Orgeat and Lemon Juice.) If you've tried it, please let us know. Cheers!

    For the first time I've actually made this cocktail before at home and I wasn't impressed. I used Pierre Fernand and a store bought orgreat and it just didn't feel like it came together. I guess I'll try it again and see if my mind changes. When I made it I wanted to be good so I could add it to my drinks of choice list.

    • @KevinKos
      @KevinKos  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      When I tried it first I wasn't too impressed either but with some balancing being made I think it's quite a tasty drink. I would still experiment with it a bit more to make it more crafty and appealing for the eyes. But I have to take some time and work on that.

    I have been creating my own bitters using mostly home grown materials. I was reading the Orgeat recipes and would love to see yours. Wondering if the use of other nuts could impart a unique character. As for rose water I am also wondering if the addition of antique highly scented rose petals would work as well as rose water? Would the addition of Elderflowers be interesting? So many flavours to play with!

    I don't know if this cocktail was made for this specific Japanese embassy, but the TH-cam channel Voices of the Past narrated the diary of one of the members of the first Japanese embassy to the United States, and it's a fantastic watch. Here's the TH-cam video's ID: /watch?v=IvPxCuIspWs Remarkably, the Japanese embassy reported almost no prejudice and happily remarked about how polite everyone was. It's an incredible story of gentlemanly attitudes and the peaceful interactions of peoples of two different worlds.

    Japanese cocktail is probably my favorite non-sour drink. I'd be interested to see your orgeat recipe, especially if you think there's a big difference between starting with blanched almonds rather than almond milk. Still have yet to try the two side by side.
    Also, I've always had this as a shaken drink. Will have to give stirring a try!
    P.S. Leandro mentions this in his Japanese Cocktail video (and I'm sure Kevin is already aware of this too): the big ango bottle (the 473ml one) gives much larger dashes than the standard ango bottle (the 100ml one). He mentions that one dash with the big bottle is roughly equal to two dashes with the smaller bottle.
