History:
In August 2009, Cherry Heering, a liqueur from Copenhagen, challenged local bartenders to create a signature cocktail for their city. This winning recipe was created by Gromit Eduardsen at Bar 1105 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Review:
Bready notes in the genever combine with the cherry brandy and the lime juice to produce a complex bittersweet, jammy cocktail.
