This is one of my favorite Savoy cocktails. Note that the ratios in the book differ from the above recipe: orange juice should be equal parts as with the two vermouths and gin. Grand Marnier--which makes this "Satan's Whiskers (straight)"--is at a ratio of 1/2 the other components. The specific gin and vermouths are not called out in the Savoy.
