The M and M, short for Monte y Mezcal, emerged in 2012 under the guidance of Marco Montefiori, the US Marketing Manager of Amaro Montenegro. The drink gained popularity in 2015 thanks to the efforts of Robert Krueger from Employee’s Only. This unique fusion of flavors combines the sweet and bitter elements of Montenegro with the smoky essence of mezcal.
The M and M quickly became a favorite among bartenders, often referred to as the Manager’s Meeting due to its frequent consumption in that setting. Originally served as a shot, this delightful concoction has evolved into a sophisticated Negroni-like cocktail, elegantly presented in a rocks glass. It is delectably simple, spirit-forward, and an excellent choice for late-night sipping. Discover the perfect blend of simplicity and sophistication with the Monte y Mezcal.
