Rum · COCKTAIL GUIDE

Hemingway Daiquiri

Hemingway Daiquiri suits someone looking for grapefruit, sour and dry rather than a generic sweet cocktail. Its lean, light body makes it fairly approachable. Compared with Mojito Extra, it leans fuller in body. Its finish keeps the rum base in view, even when the opening flavours feel more immediate. The index points toward Seafood or Ceviche at the table; Mojito Extra is the nearest place to continue exploring.
