History

Bready genever is aromatised with sherry and kirsch; red currant syrup provides the main flavour, its richness balanced by lemon juice.

This drink is a variation on the classic Artist's Special cocktail, which traditionally uses Irish Whiskey. The alteration here is the substitution of Dutch genever for whisky, leading to its name.
