Story
When we first tried the Oh My Word! back in August 2024, I substituted Dolin Gènèpy le Chamois because Green Chartreuse was in short supply. Recently I came into possession of another bottle of Green Chartreuse, so I decided to revisit this cocktail since it was one of my favorites. But when I made one, I discovered that I now find the original version a little too sweet. To compensate, I decreased the Maraschino liqueur, replaced the Old Tom gin with London Dry, and increased the gin to a full ounce. The Revisited version is a little more assertive and (I think) better balanced. Once again, credit to Sother Teague for the original.
