Really a fine and well proportioned cocktail. Hard to go wrong with Averna and Heering when used judiciously. The sherry provides complexity and the subtle creme de banana just nudges it a little.

Dry sherry? Like a fino/manzanilla or like oloroso/amontillado/palo cortado?

Edit: I saw on Reddit that it's amontillado, but that recipe also has Angostura Bitters not mentioned here.

Craig E commented on 5/16/2025:

Edited to add the forgotten bitters, thanks. I used amontillado (now specified in the recipe); trying something lighter than that would be worth the experiment I think, though I don’t have a true fino on hand at the moment.

I wondered about the bitters in the image, and almost asked, but I had already made it (and with Manzanilla sherry since it just said dry at the time.) Guess I'll have to try it again. Edit: made per updated instructions, it is still quite good, but I honestly preferred the gentler touch of the lighter dry sherry, and the amount of Angostura kicks this into a higher intensity level.
