Review:
Originally and rather boringly named "Celery Gin Cocktail" until I realised how close it is to David Embury's Nome. My original recipe (photographed) was served in a coupe glass:
60 Celery gin
30 Fino sherry
15 Celery saccharum

I used a celery-infused Plymouth gin, Lustau oloroso, my own celery saccharum (naturally), and Bitter Truths celery bitters.
It's rich, thick, tending towards the sweet, honeyed, dried sultana, melon rind from saccharum, tempered by some vegetal celery and the bitters. With the Lustau oloroso, this would work very well as a digestif. Gorgeous!
