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.

Curious to know if you tried this again with thinner slices of cucumber?
