As David says of his drink, "Much like its namesake garment, this cocktail is simultaneously sharp and smooth; and whilst it's rather cool, it's also likely to keep your head warm."

Ahhh... This is a 4.4+ stars... On the verge of hallowed greatness... nutty and citrus oily... it's dry, but I wouldn't squeeze the cane much in this... something missing that would electrify this...

Once again, with this cocktail you have enlarged my bar.
Delicious.
