How to make:

STIR all ingredients with ice and strain into chilled glass.

Garnish:

Orange zest twist

Comment:

Spirituous and lightly vinous with subtle agave notes, bready genever and spicy gin all refreshed by zesty orange curaçao. Five equal parts is a faff to measure for individual cocktails but a dream to batch.

About:

A riff on Seth Brammer's excellent Farmer’s Tan created in February 2018 by yours truly at the Cabinet Room, London, England.
