Orange fruitiness fortified with cognac and white rum. Fruity but not a sweetie.

A better version of olympic but a bit of sweet.Use half of orange liqueur and it would be more balance.

Good observation. I've added a link to the Olympic above.

A very easy to drink cocktail. Nicely balanced, with orange flavor being predominant (obviously). Not overly sweet for my palate.

Great drink. Found it a bit sweet so put a splash of pomegranate juice in it (made it red) and took down the sugar a bit.
