A bracingly dry, spirit-forward gin cocktail with a subtle herbaceous edge. The absinthe and crème de violette work in restrained measure, lending an aromatic complexity—anise and floral notes threading through the juniper without overwhelming it. Orange bitters provide a citrus accent that sharpens the finish, leaving the drink crisp and elegantly bitter.
