Information

A relatively modern cocktail, first published in Gaz Regan's Bartender's Gin Compendium.

It's a bright, lightweight cocktail that starts off sweet (you get hit with the orange and maple very quickly) before fading to a bitter aftertaste with the Fernet and a little bite of gin. The citrus aspect makes it a nice wine pairing, with the balance of acidities preventing it from overwhelming your palate.
