Last Word
Shake, strain, straight up, cocktail glass
Some prefer a bit more Gin. Herbal and funky, initially sweet, then sour. Very balanced. If made with Genever, it's a Latest Word.
Robert Hess (Drink Boy) suggest 1/2 oz each. I've scaled this up a bit to a 3 oz cocktail.

- A bit too sweet for me but wonderful nonetheless
- Very sweet and very sour. Good drink. I have a feeling it may grow on me. Maybe try upping the gin a bit and lowering the rest next time. Or try on the *gasp* rocks. Easy to drink, for sure.
- Don't change a thing. - ★★★★★
- Like an aviation
- 1 Oz gin, 2/3 all others Maraschino garnish
- Very good, but not mind blowing.
- Genever Bols 3 oz Luzardo 1 oz Lime juice 1.25oz Green Chartreuse 1.25 oz
- Very nice complexity. Varying the proportions has a big impact on the final result. Gin is a nice base, chartreuse adds some complexity, maraschino sweetens it up, and the line keeps everything in check.
- My version is actually 1oz of each. This is a great drink.
- Gin up to 1 1/4 oz. Everything else down to 1/2 oz. Try chartreuse as both a rinse and an ingredient

Abigail Gullo makes a Last Laugh by straining this into a champagne flute and topping with cava, with a lime twist.
