Review:
The original recipe was actually 2/3rds genever to 1/3 sweet vermouth but this produces an overly dry cocktail so I've upped the proportion of vermouth to genever. Made with a quality genever oude this cocktail is almost nutty and makes for an interesting aperitif.
History:
Recipe adapted from Albert Stevens Crockett's 1935 The Old Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book.
