  • Lots of good stuff in there and it all works.
  • Made with Conniption Gin and Vya. This was amazingly well balanced for as many strong players as it has - gin/juniper was predominant, which wasn't my favorite, but that's personal pref.
  • Explosive when using barreled gin instead.
  • Boozy and aromatic — ★★★★
