Sounds WAY too sweet. Needs acid. Try more Bourbon too / less other stuff.

half as much apricot brandy. a little picked it up. still a 2 — ★★
I used Punt e Mes and half as much apricot liqueur (sweet) as everything else. Surprised by the depth--herbal notes up front, a little sourness, ends sweet. Color (brown) leaves something to be desired.
