The story behind
Created in the late 1940s, the Black Russian is the predecessor to the famous White Russian. As seen in the image, it is characterized by its deep, translucent dark color, reminiscent of freshly roasted coffee. It is served in a rocks glass (Old Fashioned) with large, clear ice cubes, highlighting its minimalist elegance. It is the perfect after-dinner drink for those who enjoy powerful and sophisticated flavors.
