Review:
Peated whisky sits brilliantly with the floral elderflower notes in this late-night sipper. Absinthe plays an important role and I like with as much four times the quarter bar spoon I've stipulated in this recipe.
History:
A March 2023 riff on my 2006 In-Seine cocktail at the suggestion of Lucas Fiammiferi, a fellow Discerning Drinker, in a comment on our In-Seine page.
