  • Overly sweet for me, drowning out any nuance. Would be worth trying again with less creme or with better quality than the cheap DeKuyper I have on hand.

  • We don't keep tequila around and use mezcal. That might help cut the sweetness edge. Still sweet but nice. 4.5. — ★★★★
  • Maraschino too strong, even at 1/4 oz
  • A bit sweet for our taste. Maraschino too dominant. — ★★★
  • Very interesting. — ★★★★

Like a lot. Also good to replace some of the maraschino with kirschwasser, especially if you wanna dry it out a bit.

  • Drier style Negroni type drink but that little sweetness of maraschino balances it nicely. A good argument for Gran Classico as a superior bitter.
