History
Gregor describes the Brandy Crusta as "based on the father of the Sidecar, the granddad of the Margarita, Laydeez an' Gennulmen! The Brandy Crusta."
Gregor de Gruyther created this cocktail in 2006 at Ronnie Scott's in London, England. Its name reflects its nature as "quite a light Crusta."
