Hey, if you like what you’re drinking you’re doing it right!
I love how this is literally a topographic map!
Bénédictine is really sweet with some herbal notes, so you’re right: not peaty! I used a blended scotch with medium smoky notes, but I think you have a lot of flexibility with scotches here to get different flavors.
I haven’t run out yet, so I don’t have any first-hand suggestions! But I found this article to be interesting, I think I originally found it after I read a times article about the monks cutting back production. I’d be curious to hear how any of them are if people have tried!

Yes! That’s a great one.
Good call out, I should have mentioned the garnish; I decorate with that thinly sliced lime round, just because I think it’s cute! It’s not big enough to squeeze or really change the acidity of the drink, it’s just cut super thin so it floats on top.
If we’re looking for egg white and no lemon juice, I’d go for a Pisco sour!
Mine is from before the monks got lazy!
But I hear your pain on the annoyingly tall bottle! There’s always one that doesn’t fit in the spot it’s should, and then breaks the whole system of organization. For me it was Luxardo maraschino liqueur; that thing is tall!
The redesigned packaging took nearly four years to develop
That’s… that’s quite a lot. I wonder what sort of wild iterations took up four years.
That’s so sweet, thank you! But we are just playing local bars, nothing too fancy and no internet presence (yet?). It’s bluegrass, and I play banjo in it.
Um, amazing! Thanks for the info!
Looks great! What’s the one on the upper right?
I love the deep green color in the background leaves on this one.
Looks great from here!
