That was nice, once stirred a bit oO If not stirred, U ll get a lot of beer before anything else, which was not my point in trying this recipe. But after, it had a good balance, main taste would be orangey & bourbon. The size of Ur glass will definitely be important.

Did it with rye because hadn't Bourbon in the bar at the time, benedictine and Smoked vanilla bitter from french bitter brand "Beeter" to twist it. Had to restrain meself from having a second it was so good. Rich, still with the woody-herbs hints from the Benedictine, enhancing flavours from the Rye.

Did it with Wódka Żołądkowa Gorzka de Luxe, Borghetti coffee liquor, Lavazza Espresso Italiano and an amber maple sirop. Added drops of my new marvellous Smoked vanilla Bitter from Beeter. I like it, would up the bitter/sour scale up to 7,5 though (but I like it).

Did it with Mezcal Union Uno and it was my perfect type of balance : sweet but balanced (especially with a salt rimmed glass), a tad smoky, garnished with a very ripe banana. Put it in my coktails book for future use for sure.

Did it with Damoiseau 50° agricole rhum, Select 1920 ( Venice red bitter), fresh grapefruit. The color was enough to please me, very nice taste, bitter but not so, fruity but not too much. Good balanced drink, added to my favourites.
