Delicious and I concur with other drinkers, all the ingredients shine, and the cocktail is more than the sum of the parts.

I’m having a James Joyce right now instead lol

Very nice and the ingredients all work together well. Liking cocktails a bit on the dry/sour side, did find this just about at my maximum for sweetness. Loved the way the vermouth and rye enhance each other.

I made this for the first time this evening, with slight trepidation, thinking I probably wouldn’t like it. I needn’t have worried. It’s extraordinary how the ingredients combine to create a drink which is more than the sum of its parts and far more agreeable than you would ever think it could be. Initially I felt that I could not discern the individual ingredients, but with further sipping and savouring one can differentiate them. Sweet, yet, acid in equal measure, it’s quite exquisite.

It is a nice and balanced drink.

May I the opportunity correct Harry Craddock historical inaccuracy. He says that the American engineer gave the recipe to Dr. B in 1924. However, the recipe appears in 1916 in Cocktail-ology by Count Benvinito Martini. The Craddock version is an exact copy.

Good drink. Sour. Might add 1/2oz simple syrup to balance it

Delicious! A very nice drink with just enough spice, just enough sweet, and just enough tangy sour. A keeper.
