Not the sum of its parts. Could use some tweaking.

Pleasant. It’s neither spirit forward, a sour or all out fun. The orange juice dominates. A bit of an anomaly for me.

What a wonderful cocktail. Is a bit sweet even with following Herbert Brant's suggestion of the orange bitters. Next time would think about lessening the Drambuie and sweet vermouth. Outside of being a little sweet for us, it was great.

Perfectly delightful. It's warm, with just the right amount of sweetness. But a couple of dashes of Regan's Orange Bitters Nº 6 might bring the sweet down a bit for those who prefer less sweet cocktails. Highly recommended.
