  • A delicious negroni variation, malty, slightly bitter, sweet. Found it even more accessible. — ★★★★★
  • A great light-tasting slightly sweet cocktail. Used Lillet blanc for the vermouth. This cocktail works well with up to 1.5 oz Bols Genever. I prefer at least 1.25 oz Genever. Rate 4.5

This was great. Close enough to a negroni to be delicious, but different enough to be a surprise.

Agree with Jaba above. The riff is there, but it’s not a copy. Bracing, more assertive. Delicious.
