Hey there Robert,
Nice episode. We’ve had this on the menu here at Monkey Bar in midtown Manhattan since September when Julie Reiner and I redesigned the cocktail menu. The bar is located underneath the Hotel Elysee, so it’s referential for us as well. Awesome cocktail. Cheers!

It’s definately a great drink, but not one that I see being made very often. Glad to hear you have it on your menu!

Robert,
I greatly appreciate your discussion of the quality of the cognac. This reminds me so much of the supposedly really good bars who try to sell their best anejo tequila in their (poorly made) margaritas. It’s just such an unholy thing to watch.
