About the Last Word
The Last Word is a gin-based cocktail originating at the Detroit Athletic Club in the 1910s, shortly before the start of Prohibition. After a long period of obscurity, it enjoyed a renewed popularity in the cocktail renaissance of the 2000s after being discovered by bartender Murray Stenson of the Zig Zag Café in Seattle.
