1790

Cognac and Jamaican rum are stirred with sweet vermouth, orgeat and Angostura and served in a coupe with a lemon twist. Rich and spirit-forward, with almond sweetness from the orgeat. By Frederic Yarm, Boston, MA, 2021.
Frederic Yarm of Boston created the 1790 in 2021, merging the Japanese and the 1919 cocktail after reading about Manhattan-style drinks with orgeat in "Pioneers of Mixing at Elite Bars: 1903-1933." It uses both Cognac and Jamaican rum to add funk and dryness, and the name marks the year tropical almond trees arrived in Jamaica.
