  • Refreshing. Maybe try a more spirit forward version next time with 2 oz rye and 1/2 oz falernum/lime
  • As summer draws to a close, this extraordinarily well balanced drink gives great reason to look forward to the next season of the sun. Well done! — ★★★★★

Todd Birkel commented on 8/15/2022:

I happen to have the syrup for the ‘Cubed Old Fashioned’ on hand, which married perfectly with this drink. I used lemon juice instead of lime juice, because it is generally what I prefer. A truly successful whiskey-tiki libation.

drjones commented on 2/25/2023:

One of the most balanced cocktails with Fernet that I've had. I'll reduce the Falernum & Lime to .5oz each next time, as suggested, sine I like boozier Tiki cocktails.

  • Definitely 5★ in terms of looks. Taste is simple and sake forward. I would add a pinch of salt before mixing, especially if using fresh Sakura (which is even better looking).
  • a sake-dominant drink.

flickerdart commented on 12/12/2021:

Made with Drumshanbo Gunpowder gin, Brooklyn Kura Blue Door Junmai sake, and Luxardo Maraschino (and a dash of Regan's orange bitters to make up for the lack of the cherry blossom). The green tea notes of the gin works very, very well - I would recommend using Roku or any other Japanese gin here as well. The drink is well-balanced when using these ingredients; the sake does not overpower the gin's botanicals.

If you can find sake bermutto (vermouth made from sake), consider using it here and increasing the proportion of gin.
