Ingredients: 1 oz Sweet Sherry; 0.5 oz Gin; 0.5 oz Dry Vermouth; 0.5 oz Dry Orange Curaçao Liqueur; 1 tsp Cognac

A rounded, boozy sipper that layers sweet fortified sherry and cognac over a herbal backbone of gin and dry vermouth, with a bright orange-curacao citrus lift. It pours amber over broken ice, garnished with orange and cherry, offering a smooth, slightly sweet and nutty profile with a lively citrus edge, worth trying if you like complex, spirit-forward classics with a touch of sweetness.
