An ex-sommelier, I started cocktails in 2016 and made a lot of friends since then. Visual appeal and unexpected pairings make perfect drinks, striving in that direction.

The colour is fascinating. Can the flavour be elevated to match this? It's a tall order...
It works! I found myself hovering a few feet above the floor. Where is the recipe for the Landing Frenchman please?
It has the same colour as marmite and is potentially as divisive but I loved it.

This is a subtle drink where the two sherries have a great opportunity to reveal their respective character. Expressing the lemon twist is quite crucial, I'd recommend not skipping this step.
I tried this alongside the Right Charlie version with lemon juice. My preference goes to the latter although the difference is not huge. A deliious not-too-boozy drink in both cases.
