Fresh dill and a cucumber Loch Ness Monster
What inspired this garnish?
“Arising out of the ocean of unified consciousness, by way of bartender Sam Gough’s roommate’s dreamscape, came the vision of an ancient cryptid emerging from a spiritous potation. Up from the murky depths, cresting over a churning sea of flavors and aromas is the the oft sought, but rarely sighted Loch Ness Monster. Certain eccentricities emerged during the sea beast’s transmogrification from the metaphysical to the libatious realm; as the Scottish creature, soused in brine and peat smoke, found itself burgeoning onto the physical plane amidst fresh Mediterranean vibrations.”
The cucumber-embodied beast itself stands boldly over a layer of foam, dotted with delicate, piquant dill-seaweed. In the depths lurk an array of both alpine and fresh herbs, bright citrus, soft aloe and agave, and wisps of brine and smoke
