Oh, Thank you. Wasn’t a critique, please know. As for the garnish: makes sense. Have a lovely weekend!

Interesting concoction, and lovely presentation — as always !
But, irritated about the garnish. The original recipe specifically calls for an olive as garnish…

I've added the original recipe and amended the garnish. I like the use of mint due to the crème de menthe in the recipe.

No, no, no... not terrible, but definitely off-putting up front; first, the vermouth, then the menthe and whiskey combo... somehow, the Chartreuse is a bit lost this, obscured along the edges... Dumped it... Used: Bushmills, La Quintinye, Hiram Walker Creme de Menthe (20 Mar 2022, 1:07p)

Just made this as a belated nod to St Patrick's Day. No Irish whiskey, so I used bourbon instead. Then discovered there's a bourbon-based version listed, using sweet instead of dry vermouth. It's none the worse for all that!
