History

Sweet and sour with delicate bitterness and complex cherry flavour, this cocktail is designed to pair with cheese.

Odd Strandbakken created this drink in 2018 at Himkok in Oslo, Norway. It won the final of the Heering Classics competition. For the competition, Odd Strandbakken garnished the drink with olives stuffed with Kraftkar cheese, a spicy Norwegian blue cheese that was judged the Supreme Champion at the 2016 World Cheese Awards. As he states, this cocktail "perfectly pairs with cheese."
