Recipe found in the 1930 Savoy Cocktails book.
The name caught my eye and as I read the recipe it led to think about the Aqva Lvce even though it asks for Old Tom Gin. The gin has a strong enjoyable cumin and bay leaf aspect making it quite unique.
The overall cocktail ๐ธ is dry, crisp notes of juniper, white wine, citrus, fennel, coriander, orange ๐ pith, white balsamic vinegar, and lingering hops and cumin from the gin. The bite from the lemon ๐stuffed olive ๐ซ perfectly pairs. Separate lemon oil and olive would still be wonderful. ๐
Old Tom Gin provides a sweeter profile.
