Having said that, I can appreciate double spiced Falernum. It would really punch those falernum flavor through :D :wink: :P No worries, Mike, everyone has different approaches and we all change with experience. A double-strength ingredient in a classic cocktail could throw it out of whack balance-wise, but if it still tastes good, why not? In the end it's all about enjoyment and camaraderie. But for most of us, our palates do have a tendency to develop over time as we drink more.
