That was inspired by Cheri Loughlin’s article about Drambuie. Some cocktails mentioned there imprinted themselves in my mind. One of them, The Forty-Five, was earlier on my blog, adapted and tried with various whiskies.
Created by Jamie Stephenson, Drambuie global ambassador, Renaissance is another cocktail with Drambuie I like very much. And for me, it was another target to adaptation and changing.
My experiments with Renaissance were very productive so eventually the recipe has been heavily changed, and I decided to rename it to The Transfiguration Day because…
Because the taste of the new drink reminded me of our patrimonial tradition to celebrate together old Russian Orthodox feast called Yablochny Spas, or The Transfiguration Day.
Maybe it was too conceitedly but my remembrances were too lively. I could’n resist that temptation.
