History:

A riff on the Last Word created by Simone De Luca at High Road House Club in Chiswick, London, England. Recipe courtesy of Gary 'gaz' Regan's Ardent Spirits.
See: Last Word history

Review:

Named after the direct Spanish translation of Last Word, hence the use of mezcal in place of the gin in a classic Last Word cocktail. Pineapple juice, another distinguishing feature of this riff on the classic, works brilliantly – adding a fruity sweetness and complexity.
