  • Very nice. Bracingly tart, disarmlingly complex, and just sweet enough. Nothing but the lemon is immediately recognizable but it's all there.

  • Used Gomme syrup instead of simple for no reason other than - as long as I'm grabbing Byrrh, Bokers, and Zirbenz SPL, why go as simple as simple?

  • I feel this needs some work. Perhaps some SS or Benedictine could help round things out. — ★★★

sevyryelsdorn commented on 5/07/2023:

Did not taste balanced to me as written. Maybe my lime was particularly bitter, but it overwhelmed the drink in a not-pleasant, pith-tasting kind of way. I ended up amending with more Heering and a tiny amount of Simple to make it palatable to me.


Shawn C commented on 6/11/2023:

Excellent, but I slightly altered the recipe as I have learned that the equal parts drinks with lime or lemon are often too tart, particularly when they are at their coldest. I used 1/2+ ounce of lime as I thought that would be about right against the Cherry Heering. For me the Zucca is the right way to go here vs. Sfumato, as Zucca provides a gentler smokiness. The result was a savory mesquite BBQ flavor and nose. I was amazed by the transformation of this much Cherry Heering into a completely different essence. [Others wanting a drier or more assertive drink should try the called 3/4 oz of lime, and/or Sfumato.)
