# The Hans Gruber

This cocktail was originally an attempt to reverse-engineer a
cocktail called the Alexander Wept, a standby of the bar Kask
in Portland. It turned out similar but not identical, but I like
it enough to keep making it under a new name.

This cocktail involves smoking the glass with cherry-bark smoke.
The best way to do this is to produce smoke, either by smoke-gun
or by simply setting fire to a piece of cherry bark, in some
kind of basin and leaving the glass in there.

## Recipe

- 1½oz Bulleit Rye
- ⅔oz Laphroaig
- ½oz Cherry Heering
- ¼oz Amaro Lucano
- 3 drops aromatic or spice-heavy bitters

Smoke an Old Fashioned glass with cherry bark using a preferred
method, and then mix the spirits in the glass with a big cube.
