A bruiser of a tiki-adjacent drink that leans hard into the funky, fermented side of sugarcane spirits. The overproof Jamaican rum and cachaça create a potent, earthy base with pronounced hogo and grassy notes, while Cynar's bitter artichoke character adds an unexpected vegetal depth. Banana liqueur smooths the edges and amplifies the tropical fruit esters already present in the rum, and Angostura bitters tie it together with warm spice. The result is bold, slightly bitter, and unapologetically intense.
