Review

Bready notes from genever sit brilliantly with the herbal notes of the vermouth. Maraschino notes are subtle but essential to the balance of flavour.

Wow. Just bought my first bottle of Genever, and it was outstanding. Great blending and there are multiple different falvours which are wonderful.

I was introduced to this cocktail at the Dorchester in London. I really enjoyed it but found it sweet. I have switched out their sweet vermouth out for Campari, & the angustura for orange bitters. It’s better for anyone that prefers their martinis more on a sour note.

I can't compare your version to the "published" one as I only tried yours, but I can say I really enjoyed it with the Campari!
