Great aperitif. Did not feel it was as sweet as I was expecting from the other reviews. I love the various burst of flavours with each sip.

I enjoyed the sweetness and vermouth back-end of this drink. I used Barr Hill as my gin, which has honey added and close to an old Tom. Benedictine seems to bridge the vermouth and gin nicely and compliments the aroma of the bitters and zest. This drink is sweet and pair with that in mind.

I used Ransom Old Tom, (which is oddly not sweet), so am having a drier cocktail than others seem to.
Nonetheless, I like the mix of tasty gin, Dolin dry, subtle deliciousness of Benedictine’s herbs and a definite orange character from the bitters and twist.

4/5 classic prohibition affair on the sweet side. Good introduction to the amber backroom.
