Not all houses can make their own Sidecar, Merlet has both cognac and a triple sec for a one of a kind Sidecar. As their Asia brand ambassador I had no choice but to try it for myself. Merlet VSOP cognac has a lot of aroma, fruity and floral notes and a mellow wood, combined with Merlet Trois Citrus which is very aromatic as well and low in sugar, it makes for a unique Sidecar, that feels lighter will being delightfully fragrant.
45 ml Merlet VSOP
22.5 ml Lemon
22.5 ml Merlet Trois Citrus
7.5 ml Simple (optional)
2 ml saline
1 ml Angostura
