Time to make a cocktail then…this one is from Death & Co Welcome Home…this one one of those I can’t believe I have all these things cocktails I think it was meant to be served up but I like it- the large presence of amontillado sherry and the wee funk from the Swedish punsch are a win for me. The mezcal is mostly on the nose it seems. Would drink again…especially to make progress on this open sherry.

Sombra mezcal, to rinse
