About
This tequila martini was created by Phil Ward in 2008 at Death & Company. This drink pays homage to the legendary Portuguese writer José de Sousa Saramago. I love the bit of smoke and fresh burst of grapefruit oil on the nose. The vermouth and elderflower help bring some sweetness and floral flavors.Cheers y’all!
