Inspiration
With MUJEN X from Japan, Casamigos Reposado from Mexico and Amaro Nonino from Italy, the Lieutenant is as elegant as it is unorthodox. This rare alliance of flavors balances tequila's earthy boldness with Mujen's delicate complexity and the sexy sophistication of Italian Amaro. An homage to Hemingway's Lieutenant Henry from A Farewell to Arms, this drink's aromatic bouquet of saffron, licorice and rhubarb will transport you to another time and another place.
