The Unmistakable

Growing up in Malaysia, I was exposed to many different aromas and spices that have influenced my drinking and eating habits. I love finding ingredients that traditionally wouldn’t go together, but in some weird and wonderful way combine to make a flavour profile that is greater than the sum of its parts. Australia (now my home) has native ingredients unlike anywhere else in the world. When I was asked to create a cocktail using Untold Spiced Rum, I wanted to create a recipe that UNMISTAKABLY said something about where I grew up and where I now call home. To me, this was sesame seeds and macadamias.
