B.O.B. is a digestif invented by Hendrik Albrecht and Mario Kappes. Its roots reach far into the 19th century. Furthermore, there are interesting connections to French bar culture and seafaring.
50 ml Park VSOP cognac 20 ml Bénédictine 20 ml Pierre Ferrand curaçao
Preparation: Prepare in a tumbler and serve with a large piece of ice.
Alternatively and currently preferred by us:
50 ml Chateau de Beaulon XO Cognac 20 ml Bénédictine 20 ml Hiebl Bitterorangengeist
Preparation: 3 ice cubes, stirred for 20 seconds (60 times). Serve without ice.
The B.O.B. is a twist on the B&B. While the latter consists of “Bénédictine & Brandy”, the former is Bénédictine, Orange-Curaçao and Brandy, hence the name. The B.O.B. was created at Le Lion in Hamburg as a joint effort by Hendrik Albrecht and Mario Kappes. We were first served it by Hendrik at Le Lion on 19 April 2015. Hendrik told us that this drink was created shortly before our visit after Mario and he had dinner together, when both of them had considered that they would like to drink a B&B, but that it didn’t seem quite as appropriate to them at that moment. The result of their deliberations was to additionally add the Pierre Ferrand Curaçao to add an orange fruitiness. The drink is completely convincing.

50 ml Park XO cognac 20 ml Bénédictine 20 ml Pierre Ferrand curaçao
At first, this drink does not seem to show much that is exciting. But as it turns out, the embedding of the B.O.B. in the historical context is very interesting. Aspects come to light that probably Hendrik and Mario had not thought of either.
The B.O.B. is a twist on the B&B. The B&B, as we have already shown in the related post, goes back to the French tradition of the pousse café. The same applies to the B.O.B., not only because it is a twist on the B&B, but also because there are comparable compositions for it in historical bar books that belong to the pousse cafés. The term pousse café comes from the French and translates as “digestive liquor” – exactly the purpose for which the B.O.B. was devised by Hendrik and Mario. It is also fascinating to discover that the B&B, or rather its predecessor, seems to have originated in Hamburg-Altona, and the B.O.B. in Hamburg-Altstadt, less than 4 kilometres away.
We found the oldest recipe reminiscent of a B.O.B. in Jerry Thomas’ book “The Bar-Tender’s Guide”, published in 1887:
Brandy Champerelle. Jerry Thomas, 1887.
(Use small wine-glass.) Take 1/3 fine old brandy. 1/3 Curaçoa. 1/3 Benedictine. 3 dashes Angostura.
This is surprisingly similar to the B.O.B., even though Jerry Thomas uses different proportions, does without ice and additionally uses Angosturabitters.
But what is basically meant by a Brandy-Champerelle? First of all, it should be noted that it is a very variable drink for which there is no clear recipe. As an example, we will mention the following variations: In 1862, it is prepared by Jerry Thomas in “How to Mix Drinks” from equal parts of brandy, Bogart’s Bitters and curaçao. He points out to us that this is a delicious French drink: “This is a delicious French café”. In 1882, Harry Johnsson states in his “New and Improved Bartender’s Manual” that the drink is made with a quarter each of red curaçao, yellow chartreuse, anisette and cherry brandy or cognac. His subsequent explanation clarifies – as did Jerry Thomas’ reference earlier – what is meant by the term “Champerelle”. It is nothing other than a pousse café: “Care must be used in the preparation, so that the different liqueurs do not run together.” In 1884, Albert Barnes in “The Complete Bartender” prepares the drink using two tablespoons each of Chartreuse, Angostura Bitters and Brandy, also layered.
We can therefore conclude that the terms Champerelle and Pousse-Café are to be understood as synonymous with each other. It is therefore not surprising that, as with the B&B, the “Lexikon der Getränke” (Dictionary of Beverages) published in 1913 offers a variety of layered regimental mixtures similar to the B.O.B.. They consist of cognac (Asbach), a monastery liqueur (although it is not specified which one; it was certainly not Bénédictine, as this is explicitly stated in other mixtures) and various types of curaçao: triple sec, white or green.
The B.O.B. is also a good example of how different bartenders in different places independently had the same idea. It is true that in later years Thomas’ 1887 recipe is occasionally published (1889, 1900, 1929 and 1940). It cannot be said that it is a frequently cited drink. It also appears twice in the books, in 1903 and 1906, as Earthquake Calmer. If we define the term “Curaçao” a little more broadly, and also take into account other types of orange liqueurs and allow for minor twists, the list expands to include Fiesta (1930), Centric Cocktail (1933), Dumb Dora (1934), Dom (1935) and the Honey Moon Cocktail (1936). The version with orange juice instead of curaçao is called April Shower (1909) or Olympic Cocktail (1949). The interested reader can find the corresponding references in the appendix. In any case, it should be noted that there is only one reference for all of these latter drinks. It is therefore safe to assume that these variants were all created independently of each other.
Although the drinks mentioned so far are all quite similar to the B.O.B., there is only one which, although not in terms of quantity, corresponds to the B.O.B. in terms of its components, even if it is without ice, entirely in the sense of the pousse cafés. It is the Night-Cap, published in 1887 by Charlie Paul in his “American and Other Drinks”:
Night-Cap. Charlie Paul, 1887.
[This to be taken the last thing at night as a Digester for other drinks previously imbibed. The Recipe was given to Charlie by a very old Norwegian Captain.] Take a small wine glass; put in a liqueur-glassful Of old brandy , ditto curaçoa, ditto of Benedictine; Let them blend for a moment; then take off at a Single draught, after which say – “Good Night.”
Isn’t it exciting that here too there is another reference to the B.O.B.? The Night-Cap was made famous by an old Norwegian captain, and the B.O.B. originated in an old port city. So both have a connection not only to French drinking culture, but also to seafaring.
The Sans Pareil published in 1937, on the other hand, is identical to the B.O.B., apart from the Angostura bitters:
One may now argue whether all these drinks we found are similar enough to a B.O.B. to be considered the same, or whether they are different enough to be considered drinks in their own right. Also, whether the B.O.B. should actually be called Sans Pareile. For us, however, the drink presented here is associated with Hendrik, Mario and the Le Lion, and for us it is clearly a B.O.B.
