ABOUT
This was created by Elliott Clark and is found in his book, “Let’s Do Drinks.” The drink’s name translates to Three Days in Cognac, which is how long it took him to fall in love with the region. This cognac old fashioned has added layers of complexity of maple and chocolate. Who can say no to chocolate and cognac? Cheers y’all!
