Cocktail with Chinaco Blanco
$$$, Modern, Full Bar, American, Cocktail, Lounge, Gastropub, Western Addition
"R&D for the week:
#chinaco Blanco, #spring44 gin, grapefruit gastrique, genmaicha, lime, smoked sea salt.
I like the nuttiness and slight tinge of smoke with the roasted brown rice tea. Plays well with juicy but bitter grapefruit. Needs one more "rounder" element I think... #research #menudevelopment #savory #smoke #tequila #cocktails #cocktail #cocktailbar #summertofall #nopa #divisadero"
