  • A surprising but very well-put together drink.
  • Works with reducing China-China to 0.75 oz. Also works with Dubonnet subbing in for sweet vermouth.

Biff Malibu commented on 4/11/2023:

Switching out the sweet vermouth for Punt e Mes makes for a more complex drink, as well as diminishing the tendency for the China-China to dominate. Either way, five stars.
