I swapped out the St Germain for Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur and think I prefer it. It's already so busy flavour wise that I think the ginger helps calm it down a bit.

A bit soft and sweet but complex enough to be interesting. I'm not sure I'd make another. The calvados (Berneroy VSOP) offers a gentle apple foundation but otherwise is lost against the floral notes of the St. Germain. Kind of sweet, but clean and dry on the finish. An afternoon tipple.

Supurb, a favorite every time; I just made this with Cocchi Americano. Out of dry vermouth. Fantastic gentian notes here. Great cocktail.

Pressing into service what I had on hand, I used Boulard Calvados Pays d'Auge VSOP Small Batch #3 Bourbon Cask Finish, & Giffard Sureau Sauvage.
Complex flavour layers & oh so tasty!

Out of the drinking context, "sang" in french is masculin only and only uses the pronoun "le".
So the proper spelling is "Le Sang jaune"

Many thanks Philippe. Now corrected to say "Le Sang Jaune"

Surprisingly thick mouthfeel. Lots of different flavors popping out over time: Elderflower, anise from the absinthe. Substituting Gran Classico for Suze, didn’t find it overly bitter. Calvados was more restrained than expected.
Well-balanced, very nice, and totally different than other drinks.
