  • No allspice dram but still good — ★★★★
  • Made with Old Granddad bonded, and (rather randomly) a dash each of celery and Peychauds bitters. The curacao is the loudest ingredient. Amaro-like bittersweetness on the tail end.
  • Boozy, spicy, punch-like. Allspice adds nuance without taking over. Adding this one to my Christmas cocktail list.
  • Use triple sec

We didn't have 5 x 5 aromatic bitters, so, in a choice between celery & fennel, we chose fennel. The drink is delicious.
