Warming and smooth. Varied by using Dolin dry vermouth, martini Rosso, beefeater gin and 3 dashes of bitters. Lovely to sip by the fire.

Tastes like clove and orange, very warming. 4.5 stars

Tried this with quite a bit of substitutes but turned out excellent. I would push this over into the sweeter side though. Cointreau, Monkey 47, Dolin Dry, and Carpano Antica. Next time I would up the Gin to be 1:1 with the Orange Cognac to balance it out.

I used what I had on hand. Cointreau instead of GM, Martini & Rossi extra dry and Rosso. Really liked this, found it very sweet. Will have to try it again with GM or similar and compare.

Mine differences: Bombay Sapphire, Foro Vermouth di Torino, Martini ,& Rossi Dry Vermouth. Meh. I like GM, but this drink doesn't do it justice IMHO. Perhaps the differences make a difference.

Lovely. Perfect after dinner on an autumn evening.

Not sure how to classify it, but it strikes me as a sweeter alternative to an old fashioned.

Came across this one from the homepage content. Just had this tonight and it is a 5* for us. But who the #@$ is Alice ?

Nathalie,
I am Alice Mine.
My husband says I definitely have notes of orange, herbs, and spices.

Liked it more on my second try. As Peter says, definitely showcases the Grand Marnier up front, but also some very nice herbs and spices on the after palate. I went slightly heavy handed on the bitters, which balanced the sweetness for me.

An old fashioned, unapologetic flavour hit. Not subtle but it works!

This is nice. You get the Grand Marnier (sweet orange cognac) up front, then the complexity from the gin, vermouths, and bitters fade in on the back-end.
