Cocktail Affinity

The Affinity cocktail is an exquisite blend of traditional European flavors created for true connoisseurs of classic drinks. Its history dates back to early 20th-century British bars, where the art of mixing whiskey with vermouth reached a new level. Scotch blended whiskey adds depth and a hint of smokiness to the drink, while the combination of dry and sweet vermouth adds complexity and balance. Angostura bitters complete the composition with noble bitterness, and lemon zest adds freshness. Served chilled, it is ideal as an aperitif, awakening the taste buds before dinner. This cocktail embodies elegance and understated luxury, reminiscent of the atmosphere of old gentlemen's clubs where leisurely conversations were accompanied by a glass of impeccable drink.
