Review:

Wonderfully fruity with underlying bready genever replacing the almond notes from the orgeat syrup almond notes of a classic Trader Vic Mai Tai.

We are big tiki style cocktail drinkers. We have many of the original tiki culture cocktail books. Many of the cocktails contain gin so why not genever?
This was excellent. The genever and absinthe gave a burst of herbal flavours to the cocktail. Not overly sweet as many of the rum based tiki cocktails. Great alternative to a regular mai tai and perfect with a stir fry.
