History:
Adapted from the Three Hundred Poems cocktail by Chris Brislawn at the suggestion of Simon Stevenson's wife (see the comments on the Three Hundred Poems page), in January 2023. (I took the liberty of reformulating and naming this collaborative cocktail.)

A cognac sour balanced and flavoured with the rich blackcurrant notes of crème de cassis.
