Very, very interesting! I have one bone to pick. Am I the only one that finds Fee's Falernum to have a very one dimensional flavor profile. To test, I have poured a sample of Fee's, 2 homemade recipes, J.D. Taylor in shot glasses and have sipped back and forth between them and can only say that the Fee's tastes like simple syrup with lime juice. Every one of the others has different flavors which jump out. Besides the listed chemicals, is there another detectable flavor which anyone can identify? I was sorta beside myself to read that Dr. Cocktail helped develop the formula. I can only say that what is offered, now, must have changed since his input. Please forgive me if this is better covered in a previous thread.
