What a way to go. A Martini with a splash of the green fairy. I like to use old tom gin to make an Obituary as it sits so much better with the absinthe...
My lovely bride (for nearly 25 years) and I are sitting here in Paris, missing our life in New Orleans (where we first met at Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop and later lived) enjoying our take— a 50-50 Obituary : gin to vermouth at 1:1 with a dash of Ricard. Outstanding !
