I love a complex cocktail with a bunch of ingredients. This is not that and yet, I love it still. Simple but very effective. For a twist, I made another with a dash on absinthe and it was also really good.

Maison Rouge VSOP, Sandeman’s 10 year Tawny, Liber & Co gum syrup.

Excellent flavor profile. Peychaud's peeks through and adds just the right icing on the cake.

Rittenhouse, Laird's 86, Rockwell sweet vermouth, Nonino, Peychaud's.

Served over a big rock in an OF glass but up in a coupe would work as well.

This classic absolutely works on a big rock. Recommended.

Lairds 86, Rockwell sweet vermouth, Roku gin, chartreuse. Orange twist.

I researched this a bit and discovered the original recipe calls for *sweet* oloroso or PX sherry. My understanding is that in the EU, “sweet oloroso”
is known as “oloroso dulce”.

This would considerably change the flavor profile of the drink.
