How it tastes

Whisky and amaretto give the warm body of a classic Godfather. The espresso adds bitterness and weight; the coffee liqueur extends the espresso's sweetness without sugar. Drinks slow. Ages well in the glass. We've had people order this and stay an extra hour without ordering anything else.

Why we built it

The Godfather (whisky and amaretto) is one of those classics that benefits from gentle modernisation. Espresso was the easiest, most coherent addition. The drink stays in the same family but gains depth.
