Quite the palate challenge ( in a good way, coming from a Bourbon drinker). Nose is definitely citrus. Upfront, the gin is very prevalent, followed by the lemon mid palate and finishes with a lingering, but not overwhelming, banana finish. Nice and refreshing cocktail
Went with a 10 yr old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon, which may have added more "depth" to it. The Bourbon and Dubonnet complemented each other. Bourbon was up front and the Dubonnet present at the finish. Cranberry was not very prominent. I can see this more as a fall season type cocktail ( I may add a little bit of Allspice Dram for more of a fall feel), but this was actually very enjoyable as listed.
This was really good. Did not have a Navy rum so I used a Demarara overproof rum (Lemon Hart & Son 151). Very nicely balanced and the Demarara rum added a nice flavor. Rum forward and very enjoyable.
