Drinking this now with Pikesville Rye (Heaven Hill, 6 yrs, low rye, 110 proof). I'm happy with this - minty/medicinal but lovely texture and balance and it's nice how the CAF + low rye rye tugs against the Fernet. And it's small enough to be a perfect digestive. Thanks,  Zachary

Cut the whiskey to 3/4 each because I wanted something a little less strong, and this really works well!

Thanks Fred. Do we have any idea who was at table 11? Curated this to match the cited link. Thanks,  Zachary

yarm commented on 9/20/2020:

The only one I know for sure is Kevin Upthegrove who does the 5 Minutes of Rum blog/podcast. He mentioned on my Instagram post that it was unnamed at the time and that he had dubbed it "The Man with the Golden Rum" to match the spy theme of the seminar. Here's his post & podcast about that drink which has a photo of the people seated at the table (but without names mentioned in the post or audio) other than his wife, Val Upthegrove. I've interacted with Val when she started selling Tiki-themed masks this spring (also does Star Wars, Disney, Harry Potter, and punk/goth ones) on Etsy and I just ordered my 4th a day or two ago. $5 goes to charity to support the staff of a famous Tiki bar in California during the Pandemic.

This works surprisingly well. One of the better baijiu cocktails I've had. I was using 20ml of grapefruit juice, because it was freshly squeezed and it was hard to get the exact amount with the measuring cups I used.
