The reference link seems to have some connection problems as of 2016, but is accessible through the Wayback Machine as: https://web.archive.org/web/20150706011708/http://bitbyafox.com/?p=4585. (Later links seem to take an extremely long time to actually redirect and load? Or don't load at all...odd.) The drink is okay, sort of single note grapefruit/citrus. The Lillet Rose isn't able to add much body against so much citrus acidity, and goes mostly unnoticed.

  • Used Famous Grouse. The fernet added back some of the gravitas lost by my cheapo creme de menthe. Sweet, like an After Eight mint but cleaner.

MOJO1229 commented on 7/10/2017:

A highly recommended short trip for "The Long Journey." For Cynar lovers, this drink is a disappointment. Ditto for Bonal lovers. Likewise for lovers of a good cocktail. Its taste is light, and there's no "body." The Sherry overwhelms the Cynar, and the Bonal. Were I to try and rescue "The Long Journey," my first step would be to reduce the amount of Sherry to 1 oz. I would also either trade in the celery bitter for another, or add another--probably the latter.

I rate this drink at 2.5, and call it a work in progress.

  • Used a cheaper rye so didn't get the full effect here, but this left me thinking a Penicillin is similar but better.
