Review:

Dry and spirit-forward, as an old-fashioned should be, with hints of liquorice. It's dry, even with the 2.5ml of sugar I've added to Jason's original recipe, and some will want to increase the sugar syrup to 5ml. If you have it, then also try honey syrup rather than sugar syrup as this adds a little something extra.
