Pierre Ferrand 1840, De Kuyper Peach Schnapps, Ricard Pastis, Vermut Lustau... yeah, not to ingredient spec but, my oh my, that is a bizarre taste (anise-forward, by a touch)... Hmm, in the aftertaste, after a few beats, it seems to want to come together. Maybe I was too quick to judge... (26 Jun 2023, 1:13p)
