It didn't take long to figure out that the BG Reynolds Falernum was knifing through with a flavor I could not stand. Tried dialing back etc but that flavor just killed the cocktail. Other drinks that called for Falernum came out the same way. Replaced the RG Reynolds with Fee Bros Falernum and I found magic in my tiki mug. All the wonderful flavors could now be tasted and savored. Maybe a bad batch, maybe I just don't like BG Reynolds Falernum, but I ended up pouring the rest of the bottle down the sink. I made the purchase based on good recommendations, it just didn't work out for me.
