Nice one. Sounded like there was too much absinthe but the vermouths tamed it well. Ok it's an absinthe-forward cocktail both in color and taste but sits well with the other ingredients. Will rather stir it next time: long and ice-cold.
Quite interesting! Might need some tinkering with proportions (maybe lessen the bitter?) but it gives what you hoped for: dry martini meets subtle negroni. Worth the try and probably the repeat.
Not bad but don't think the apple - rum funk combination is really harmonic at all. Beware with the absinthe: large dashes will overpower this subtle concoction.
