For me the Benedictine overpowered this - I like Benedictine but not that much and the mix didn’t seem balanced enough overall. Needs something else but don’t know what.

My dry, bitter-herbal-loving palate is very happy with this cocktail. Instant classic! (10 Oct 2021, 9:35a)

A bit sharp to start with but my palate soon adjusted. Citrus and gin with occasional honey sweetness and a bit of herbal complexity. It also looked fabulous. Ended up going down too quickly.
