Just wow!

Used Glaswegin Gin matured in tequila barrels - added an extra complexity of flavour

Maybe my particular maraschino (Croatian) was rather sweet but I find this a bit too sugary. I’d try it again but without the sugar syrup

What “discarded” means in this context?

It means to express the oils from the twists over the surface of the cocktail and then discard them rather than using the twists as a garnish. I've amended above to hopefully make a little clearer.

This one gives me almost child-like delightful reminiscences of my favourite candies. DO NOT however, serve to youngsters.

Made this substituting Punt e Mes (also from Carpano) and black walnut bitters. The bitters bring a distinctive hint of chocolate. And +1 for the coffee bean aroma developing - worth taking things slowly just to enjoy that!

One of the few sweets that suits me. With a rather soft and sweet reposado 1800, the cocktail is dominated by the vermouth with which the 1800 blends perfectly with a finish where the 1800 shows a welcome touch. The Fee brother bitter gives the whole a richness and the maraschino a welcome touch without which this cocktail would be monotonous.

finding it kinda flat and cloying. honey could definitely be a "muddling" factor. Only getting agave and pepper from the blanco tequila. bitters arent helping much either. should try again with more accurate ingredients i think
