There are several versions of this out there—some have vermouth, some don’t. This here’s my usual Martini but with a little scotch and a lemon twist. Mark Kingwell in
Classic Cocktails calls it a Dashiell Hammett. I haven’t run across that name for it before, but as a fan, I could easily see Nick Charles or even the Continental Op enjoying several of these.
Smoky Martini- 2 oz dry gin (Bluecoat)
- 1/2 oz dry vermouth (Dolin)
- 1 tsp smoky scotch (Peat Monster)
Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass. Lemon twist.
SOURCE: COMPOSITELike the last one, this has just a touch of smoke to accent the other flavors. For one in which the scotch is intense, see the
Dorini.
