Sage's Smoke Show

A Bold Escape for Your Senses

The Smoke Show is a mezcal based cocktail that was masterfully created by Sage Speakeasy & Lounges' head mixologist Shaun Parish, to play across the palette and ALL of the senses. Uniquely combining Cynar with Vago Elote Mezcal, this one-of-a-kind cocktail presents a uniquely smokey and lightly bitter profile that grabs your palate in wonderful curiosity and surprise; followed with a splash of fresh citrus, and hints of herbaceous lightness. But it doesn't stop there! Elevating the cocktail, a Mexican Vanilla Delegata foam is added, and finishing off the experience, turbinado sugar is sprinkled on top and torched table side for a truly intimate experience. Connecting taste, sight, smell, and the kinesthetic senses this cocktail will have you reeling for more!
