History:

Created in 2003 by Murray Stenson at Zig Zag Café, Seattle, USA. Murry's original recipe packed some 100ml of 40% liquor, so, in the pursuit of sobriety, I've halved the measure of each ingredient from the original and switched the glass from a Martini to a Nick & Nora.

Review:

A wonderfully tangy cocktail with great bourbon personality and hints of almond and orange.
