Where might one find Yuzu juice?

Ibsen's Door

1 1⁄2 oz Old Tom Gin, Spring 44
3⁄4 oz Braulio
1⁄2 oz Crème de Cacao, Tempus Fugit
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
Instructions

Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.

Notes

Spring 44 is described as having an intensity that falls "somewhere between the light Hayman's and the potent Ransom products". I didn't have this brand, so I made the drink with a 50/50 blend of Hayman's and Ransom - turned out nice.

Thanks,

dustinw84 commented on 10/19/2020:

Source recipe calls for 3/4 oz Lustau Dry Amontillado, 3/4 oz Lustau Dry Oloroso.

DrunkLab commented on 10/19/2020:

That was Frederic's interpretation of the recipe, rather than the original as published.

yarm commented on 10/20/2020:

Everything on my blog that is in parenthesis is how I interpret the recipe whether by brand, volume, or modification. I split the two very similar styles (Amontillado & Oloroso) since I was probably killing off a bottle but it was 9 years ago. I didn't have a Fino or Manzanilla back then but it would be my go to now for this recipe especially since it would let the other ingredients shine more.
