Historical Background

Naked and Famous was created by bartender Joaquín Simó at Death & Co in New York City in 2011. Simó described it as the 'bastard love child' of the Last Word and Paper Plane, with an Oaxacan connection through its mezcal base. The cocktail was added to the official IBA list in 2020.
