I much prefer the version I had in Savannah. Use tequila instead of gin, and maraschino liquor instead of Americano Bianco. A completely different taste and I loved it. This one sounds like a gin and tonic with green chartreuse.

There are versions of the Last Word since its revival in the early 2000’s. I had this at the Kimpton Brice Hotel in Savannah Georgia. The restaurant is Pacci, it’s in the hotel. The cocktail menu is very creative and the food is excellent.

In Savannah city, Georgia or in a bar called Savannah? If the city, which bar? The Savoy Society perhaps? Was the cocktail called Famous Last Word?
