I'm curious about the reason behind the name of this one.

Like a superstrength Webster Cocktail. Wallop!
But I'm gonna try a Webster and see if the bigger citrus component improves things - I'm finding this just a bit too toothsome.

Thanks, Paul. I've just revisited and re-jigged this recipe to reduce its volume by 25% and while doing so I have removed the sugar syrup to make it drier. I've also added a link to the Webster Cocktail.

What The Hell. Thought I’d give it a re-try after all these years. It’s an old-school recipe so is generous in its proportions. Dust of those large Martini glasses and fill them with What The Hell.

I bought my first cocktail recipe book in the early nineties, and this drink was in it. I think the book was called something like 1001 Cocktails. A coffee-table kind of tome. The What the Hell in the book differed in proportions, as I recall, but it was so long ago that, having had the Difford variant for pre-dinner cocktail today I am not able to perform a comparative analysis. But then again, what the hell...
