The name should probably be modified to show this as the Byrrh Cocktail (1936 Artistry of Mixing Drinks) or similar. Kirchwasser is an unusual choice for cocktails with this name. The older Savoy version is equal parts Canadian Club Whisky, Byrrh, and French Vermouth. Another 1936 version in Gran Manuel de Cocktails uses equal parts scotch, Byrrh, and Cinzano sweet vermouth. It doesn't appear that this had coalesced into any single recipe by 1936. I haven't researched further to find earlier drinks or other variants with the same name.
