Ingredients
  • 1.5 ounce plymouth gin
  • .5 ounce salers gentiane
  • .25 ounce dolin dry
  • 1 bar spoon of mugolio pine sap
  • st. george rhum agricole
  • santorini caper leaf
Directions
  1. Mist a Nick and Nora glass with St. George Rhum Agricole (or rinse with 1/8 oz) then place the caper leaf on the bottom.
  2. In a mixing glass, combine the Plymouth, Salers, Dolin Dry and the pine sap. Add ice and stir just enough to incorporate and chill the drink without too much dilution- you want to maintain a nice, silky mouthfeel. Strain atop the caper leaf-lined glass and enjoy.
