  • Made with Amer Sauvage (and 1 1/2 oz bourbon). As usual the first sip was too intense, but thereafter really enjoyable. Candy of Aperol balanced earthy bitter of the gentian. — ☆☆☆☆

I remember Colin telling me that Imbibe screwed up the recipe slightly and it should actually be 1.25 oz bourbon. Either way it makes a fine drink.
