A complex and sophisticated cocktail
Naked and Famous is a modern cocktail created by bartender Joaquín Simó at Death & Company bar in New York. It combines mezcal, Aperol, Chartreuse and lime juice, giving it a distinct and complex flavor profile. Mezcal adds a smoky note, while Aperol and Chartreuse add a fruity and herbal flavor. This makes the drink both tart and bitter, with a unique balance between sweetness and smokiness. Naked and Famous is a great drink for those who want to try something different and sophisticated.
