This and a 5:3 Martini are a nice cocktail if you are having a sociable evening. Lots of botanicals with a gin backbone.
It’s not ground breaking but easy to throw together. I had to use a Speyside malt and ended up with a Manhattan ratio with 10ml of ginger liqueur (Giffards which isn’t that fiery).
The Licor 43 certainly tames the three Brandie’s and gives a warm vanilla flavour with a few botanicals thrown into the mix by the vermouth. Nice.
Fantastic! Instead of the suggested rum (an ongoing problem with many rum specific cocktails), I used Marks & Spencer’s own Dark Jamaican rum and found a 60-30ml, rum-vermouth ratio to be ideal. Rummy, a touch sweet and great orange notes.
