  • History and Influences of Dominican Cuisine
    History and Influences of Dominican Cuisine Like many traditions that have survived in the Dominican Republic, the cuisine is a vibrant mix of cultures, a blend of Spanish, African and even Arawaks indigenous (Taínos) influences. The particular type of cuisine is known as “comida criolla”, which is also found in other Caribbean areas and adapts classic Spanish and African recipes to indigenous cooking methods. The technology of barbecue, today popular and considered exotic in our country, originated from the barbacoa (from which it takes its name), the method the Tainos used to roast their food. Hutias, iguanas, birds, fish and seafood were roasted on this primitive grill. One of the most produced foods, cazabe, made of yuca, would become, because of its excellent preservation period, the “bread of the Conquista.” In 1783, Moreau de St. Mery observed that bread was sometimes made from bananas, corn and cazabe. This bread was, by 1860, named the “arepa”. Christopher Columbus and the chroniclers of the Indies, like Fernández de Oviedo, left us with their impressions of the fruits of the island. The sweet potatoes, the admiral tells us approvingly in his diary, are “del grosor de la pierna”, the meat on the bone of Hispaniola. Fernández de Oviedo, speaking of the loquat, exclaimed that this fruit, upon “putting it in the mouth, as soon as it is bitten, a bold flavor enters the palate, and at that moment an aroma rises to the nose and head that is unequaled.” With the development of cattle-raising as the main productive activity of the Colony, the high consumption of meat began, especially of mountain cattle, which filled the plate of Spaniards, slaves and those from the New World.

We chose to dedicate the first drink of this cocktail list to a brother of ours, who passed away earlier on this year, and who has been essential for us, both as individuals and as Il Mercante, helping us to give life to this new project in its early stage, the hardest of times. Nevertheless, just like he taught us, today we won’t be sad! With this cocktail we want to celebrate Life, that gifts us with emotions, smiles, and tears at times, that makes us meet new friends, find the old ones, create unbreakable bonds, Life that makes us feel good and happy to be alive! A cocktail with a strong and tough character, but with a sweet and kind heart: it holds within a single sip its very essence. A twist on the Boulevardier, prepared with our blend of bitters and his favourite plum liquor, aged in durmast barrels for three months.
