The LAST WORD was created in the early 1920s at the Detroit Athletic Club. The cocktail was only popular for a few decades and was later published by Ted Saucier in his 1951 book, Bottom's Up.
A Seattle bartender revived the cocktail by placing it on his drinks menu. It's popularity helped the drink find its way onto the menu at the Pegu Club which cemented it's resurgence.
You can play around with the gin component too - sub in Irish Whiskey for a Dublin Minstrel or Mezcal for a Last of the Oaxacans but there are an endless number of riffs on The Last Word.

INGREDIENTS
- 22.5ml Bourbon Whiskey (0.75 oz)

THE BYWATER
An original cocktail of Chris Hannah - a veteran bartender that, up until a year ago, tended bar at French 75 in New Orleans.
Chris took inspiration from the Brooklyn and Jamie Boudreau's Amer Picon replica (bit.ly/amer-picon-replica). Here's a second easier recipe: bit.ly/amer-replica Chris prefers using Plantation OFTD in The Bywater, a rich overproof blended rum from Jamaican, Barbados and Guyana rums - it stands up to the complex herbal and vegetal profile of the Green Chartreuse.
Rich, subtle herbal notes and incredibly boozy.
INGREDIENTS
- 52.5ml Aged Rum (1.75 oz)
- 22.5ml Green Chartreuse (0.75 oz)
- 15ml Amer Replica (or Averna) (0.5 oz)
- 7.5ml Velvet Falernum (0.25 oz)

Holy moly that third cocktail was potent...!! Pretty sure it's over 4 standard drinks! That overproof rum really does stand up to the (usually) dominant Green Chartreuse resulting in some big bold flavours!! Don't forget to sub to my weekly email: stevethebartender.com.au/newsletter
You should try a Last drop, named after a pub in Edinburgh. The same as the Last word but with smoky whiskey😋
Today's my 21st birthday, I want to get a 6 or 7 bottle bar to try out mixing for me and my wife and friends. What should i look for to try to get or look for at the liquor store to start it
hi steve, had a question / request for you.
i recently was in spain visiting on of my friends who is a bartender aswell, and he took me to the licor 43 factory which looks amazing btw, and there were a lot of premixed bottles of licor 43 ready for us to try which was really cool but my favorite one by far was the Fresco, its very simple and so refreshing, its made up with a little bit of licor 43 , a bit of lemon juice and carbonated water. really easy for big batches at parties... but id really love to see it featured in one of your videos! ik
Yeah, that last one's intriguing, but that does seem like a lot of alcohol for one drink. I need to get myself a bottle of Chartreuse and tread lightly...
@@aceeastwood2871 Death & Co also call's that Pete's Word using Laphroaig 10
Every time he does the smile at the camera when he shakes, it makes me smile. Love it!
signature move......as a btender u need the tips..... and since 50% of drinkers r women hence the smile
I can't wait to try these! I really enjoy the channel and Steve's teaching methods! SALUD!
I just bloody love this channel 😂 Guys a legend
I agree:)
Love your videos every time man. 🤙 Cheers yo those cocktails.
Fabulous Green Chartreuse cocktails!! Damn they sound fabulous!! Thanks Steve!! 🙂
That cheesey from mid-shake makes me chuckle every time. Love your content. 😊
Thanks Shanna! 🙌
Just made myself a Bywater. Thank you for this. I never heard of it. It's really impressive. Super good and far more complex than I had imagined. I'm a sucker for Averna, so perhaps that's it :)
I actually have a bottle of Chartreuse in my hobby bar. Now I have something to make. Thanks, Steve.
This is great. Green Chartreuse is one of my favorites.
STEVE!!! Guess who just bought their first bottle of Chartreuse, and made their FIRST cocktail, the Last Word!!!! Awesome cocktail!!! Thanks for being my personal cocktail teacher guy!!!!
Do you have a shirt with you smiling mid-shake? If so, I'd buy your whole stock
Yes this is the exact comment I was looking for. That wonderful smile mid shake. 😁
I was actually wondering if that was a rehearsed expression? I’m not saying it is fake but I was curious if it was something you had consciously done because a guy your size with a grim expression could be a bit intimidating or at least off-putting to your customers.
Cool. Picking up a bottle. Was debating what I'd do with it (since its so expensive) didn't want to buy it and not know how to mix with it. Keep the great vids coming!
Looking forward to trying these. Been wondering how to use that Chartreuses bottle
Had all the ingredients for all 3 except I’m out of Averna so I subbed in amaro meletti and still liked it. My favorite was the last flight. Cheers mate have a good rest of your weekend
Love your channel. Thanks for all these great recipes. I have a technical questions about Velvet Falernum. How do you store a bottle after opening it and how long does it typically keep after opening? Thanks.
I do love Charteuse on it's own over ice... but these I have to try!
The taste and aroma of Green Chartreuse takes you to another place 🌄
I love Chartreuse. Great video
Those 3 drink are so amazing, will do it tomorrow after work 😂😂😂 cheers
Thanks!
The Last Word is a top favorite of mine. It’s so perfectly balanced and the color is also visually pleasing. And so easy to remember how to make!
It's a top 10 favourite!! Fabulous cocktail!! 🙂
Same it shifts for me but its always in my top 3
@@Azn_Bran Yes agreed!
Never seen the last flight before...going to have to give that a try 👍
Hi man, can recommend a variant of the last word, which is my favorite way to drink it. Make it as usual but serve in a rocks glass with a large ice cube and garnish with a cucumber instead of the cherry. To make it even better you can use hendricks gin!
I have a China-China which is closer to the original Amer Picon remaining at 40%abv that should help spark the Bywater a little closer to potent 😉 great compilation!!!
I will say I love the last word. I just made one of those and then followed that up with a last flight which sounds gross but was DELICIOUS as well! Thanks!
Had my first “Last Word” this evening. Very easy drinking, potentially dangerous but truly awesome.
They are hey! I've got another cocktail uploading soon which is similar to the Last Word - stay tuned!
It's scarily easy to put away a string of Last Words (or Final Wards, the rye version that I strongly recommend)
It's the best!
Green delight. Love chartrese. Salud🍻from mexico
Awesome channel
Love it! Love Green chartreuse and love The Last Word.., but Steve your probs with the limes in the Last Word illustrate one of the issues with lime-based cocktails - how to have a nice, soft, juicy lime ready to go. So, for me, when limes are expensive, or like yours were today, I go for a Shanghai Gin instead. Also has the advantage of my favourite cocktail proportions (30/30/30/30 - who are we kidding with this 22.5ml - OK, that’s what we say, but does anyone actually do that??).
steve! great video as always! try this! green char 1 oz, fernet 1 oz, simple 1 oz, lime juice 1 oz. the industry sour! also, can you find cherry bark vanilla bitter by bittercube near you? such a game changing bitters! makes a manhattan sing again!
Im going to have to make The Bywater at work tomorrow, looks really interesting.
If you havent already tried it mix up a tailspin using the Death & Co recipe. You wont be disappointed! or a Bad Date, its not quite as well known but is well worth a try.
1/2oz dry vermouth
1/2oz suze
1/2oz green Chartreuse
2 dashes of Absinthe
1 1/2oz Tequila
Stir and strain into a coupe with a lime twist.
What is Suze? I've never heard of it
Something I learned about limes is to pick the ones with the smoothest skin possible. These will yield the most juice.. Yes I actually measured it LOL
@ready 2fly Smooth, not soft. Same ripeness, different texture.
Thank you so much for your videos Steve ! You gave me the passion of cocktail making🍹! I live in Grenoble and everyday I can see from my window the Chartreuse mountain chain where that famous alcohol was invented a few centuries ago... I really like the green one! Here we drink it pure but your cocktails seem so tasty... Il will try soon! Concerning your CZcams channel, I think you should open an online shop to sell some merch, bartender equipment, jiggers, shakers... 👍🏻😉 I love your channel! Keep going!
Chartreuse mountain looks stunning and likewise for the distillery - so cool that you’re so close to it..
I do have a barware store: www.cocktailkit.com.au and merch is available on Patreon: bit.ly/stb-patreon
😁
@@StevetheBartender_ Yes the French Alp's are beautiful 😉. I didn't know for the store, l'm gonna visit it right now! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍹
Love them all! Watch your vlogs. Get alcohol delivered. Then make your cocktails. You make COVID fun!
Nothing IS better than a pure chartreuse but your cocktail look great
My crave for Green Chartreuse had been satisfied. Finally.
So good
My bottle of Chartreuse has been feeling put aside and not given enough attention lately, time to scroll some dust off it!
The Bywater seems like a great cocktail when the weather's a bit cooler,...although I guess the overproof rum makes me think warmer. Now I'm confused.
a side note... Green and yellow chartreuse are the exact same thing, however, green chartreuse is macerated longer than yellow, with the addition of honey and saffron.
Jotting down the Last Flight to try when my local bartender isn't too busy
Just mad a Last Flight. Bloody delicious
Awesome
I tried the Bywater with a 40% rum found it too soft so I added some Wray and Nephew for proof it up. Now it’s a little too good. I’ll need to get some OFTD and try again. Last Flight is pretty good also
I feel like he's looking into my soul while he's shaking those drinks...to steal it.
I just bought a bottle of Chartreuse yesterday. that is a really tasty drink. I think it has something like 160 different herbs in it and only 2 monks know the recipe. it is very closely guarded. I bought the Luxardo too and I have Sapphire gin. I might just make that cocktail after I work off this hangover I got.
I will say, though, Chartreuse is a MUST HAVE in the home bar (or "bah" to quote Steve)
130. 🙃
Steve out here doing the lord's work getting us drunk quicker
very nice, i'll be right over
I made the bywater last night. Holy mackerel it is good! I had a bottle of that Plantation over proof rum. it has been sitting there a while because I can't drink it in anything else. It's been too strong for any other cocktails I've tried. Not just alcohol content, but the flavor too. Anyway, this made it work. One of my favorite cocktails. Thanks for sharing.
At 50 I’ve had only a few cocktails typically when someone says try this. I’m reading a book and chartreuse came up. I’m curious what this elixir tastes like. Thank you for sharing
Dude, I thought that in your post you were asking something you've never tried:D made me want to taste it ofc so I searched, and what did I find now?
5:39 Cheers Steve!
What would you think about using Bigallet China-China Amer instead of Averna for the Bywater? Lots of folks in the US swear it's one of the best substitutes for Amer Picon.
What's a good substitute for Averna please?
What can be used as a substitute for averna and velvet falernum?
Can you use Campari as a substitute in the last flight
What's your workout routine
Why does your Last Word end up so much more green than mine? Excellent video.
nothing like monk juice.
Takes you to another time and place, a better one for me at least.
Vera nice Steve, Picking ingredients I can't get. My heart is broken. the lack of Velvet Falernum is terrible.
You can make your own.
Roll your Citrus between your Palm and the Bar Surface to release the Juices before you cut and juice them.
The Last Word is my favorite cocktail and so I asked for a bottle of Chartreuse for Christmas and then forked over the $40 at the liquor store for the Luxardo 😂 so worth it 😂
Looks like my insides are burning already just by watching this lol
Any vodka and chartreuse recipes?
The last flight seems like it would be out of balance. You gain some sweetness from substituting the bourbon for the gin, but lose a lot of sugar with Aperol instead of maraschino.
My go-to for Chartreuse cocktails has always been The Tipperary. It is kinda weird how few people seem to know about it though.
Whats the recipe Angry Tom?
@@LetsTalkDrinks 1 1/2 oz Irish whisky, 1 oz. sweet vermouth, 1/2 oz Green Chartreuse, stirred and poured into a chilled glass, no ice. I garnish with an orange peel. Cheers!
Does The Bywater require Averna? Right now I just have some Ramazzotti Amaro.
That smile Daddy
finally got a bottle of green chartreuse. Made a Last Word for the first time. Fan-fucking-tastic cocktail. probably one of my favorites now. looks like i like green chartreuse haha
The mid shake scowl might even be better than the smile
When this man gives me a smile, I question my sexual preferences.
Haha, cheers Rob 😉
Yooooo if you have Last Word and Paper Plane Ingredients- go ahead a buy some mezcal and try a Naked & Famous as well! Also mezcal last words are delicious
Yer, Naked & Famous rocks!
Continue the green chartreuse and overpoof rum vibe with a Nuclear Daquiri.
To je pro nějaký ročíldy...
My osamocený Pinďové, co jsme hned hotový, pijeme teplou levnou vodku!!!
Protože všechno už je ztracený :D :D Jé pozdě!!!! :D :D :D
Všechno je ztracený!!! Slyšíš?!!!!
ZTRACENÝ!!!!! :D
Both the green & yellow Chartreuse have been out of stock for a couple of months.
NIce :)
Not sure if he is Australian or British 😂 love this channel nonetheless and now I can do something with my green chartreuse instead if drinking it clean!
Pretty sure he’s an Aussie. Although he does speak really well which seems to argue against it. 😈😁
I just made the Last Flight..................... I can now see why you pulled that face at 9:36. Ummmm not quite my cup of tea. The Last Word however, BEAUTIFUL!
Last flight
Tuesday I'll be trying something new. I'll shake a mild whiskey with green tea liquor and some honey, what do you think?
sound good
Arggg, these ingredients are getting pretty fancy (can’t pick them up in Asda)
Love your channel, keep it up!
can we get a face meltingly sour cocktail?
Steve: *Reads the ABV on the Plantation Overproof*
Me, a 13 year old at heart: *giggles hysterically*
I wouldn't believe anything could over power Chartreuse, however, I put an oz of OFTD in a Painkilker yesterday, never believed anything could ovsr power 4 oz of pineapple juice either, but it did lol
Weirdly found green better than yellow
Keep up good work Steve!
Ah, you missed out on maybe my favorite Green Chartreuse cocktail: the Bijou!
it was mentioned in the Green Chartreuse poll he put up on YT earlier though..
Did someone say... 69 percent? ;)
What’s the most surprising cocktail you’ve tasted?
Ach I've tried and failed to like chartreuse. The Last Word, The Final Ward, Verte Chaude...I live in Dublin so really wanted to like the Dublin Minstrel.
But every one tastes like Bertie Bassett's pissed in my mouth 🤢
I'll take yours if you don't want it :D. In all seriousness, there's no shame if you don't like it. It sure doesn't taste like anything else under the sun. If you still want to keep experimenting with the stuff, you could try a Neptune's wrath, where it's only used as a garnish and accent note.
😂
Have you tried the Last Flight? Seems like the Aperol should mellow the Chartreuse a bit, maybe start out with more Aperol and/or lime and less Chartreuse to begin with? This is kind of how I got myself used to Campari, found something where it wasn't so dominant and just played around with that.
@baloonman5 @Matarro1980 Cheers for the advice folks! Honestly got through 2/3 of it and had to give it up. Even if I found something that I could stand it'd still never be worth forking out for a new bottle!
Finally! Something I can use my chartreuse for other than sore throat medicine. Thanks!
Hey Steve, will you come to my birthday and make me drinks? :D You can bring your wife so she can remind you to smile :D
Steve, have you tried Becherovka, herbal liquer from Czech Republic, really popular here in Europe?
Are there any cocktails using Rumple Minze? I'm no longer a shooter kind of guy but still enjoy peppermint schnapps.
Try liquid cocaine
Which contains
Rumple minz
Jagermister
Overprof rum
And gold schalger
The moment he smiled at the camera, I hit the like button
You arms when shaking those drinks may have turned me gay.
Hello! 22.5 ml is not .75oz! Please use real units when mixing your cocktails, they where all developed using oz, use oz; and yes I understand it's really about ratios, but if you want your cocktail to fit your glass you need to be mindful of volume.
Hii
And I just drank grog
