Cocktail Description

Imagine the classic Boulevardier reimagined with silky sophistication—the Boulevardier's Velvet transforms the iconic cocktail into something truly luxurious.

This elegant variation combines the rich caramel and vanilla notes of Buffalo Trace bourbon with the perfect balance of dry and sweet vermouths, all crowned with a cloud-like layer of egg white that creates a smooth, velvety texture. The first sip reveals complex flavors—warm whiskey spice, subtle herbal notes from the vermouths, and a gentle sweetness that finishes with remarkable smoothness. Perfect for cool evenings or as an impressive nightcap, this cocktail strikes a wonderful balance between approachable and sophisticated. While it requires proper shaking technique to achieve that perfect frothy head, even home bartenders can master it with a bit of practice. The Boulevardier's Velvet pairs beautifully with charcuterie boards, especially those featuring aged cheeses and smoked meats, or alongside dark chocolate desserts where its richness can complement rather than compete.
