A really nice mix of all the spirits involved. You can feel them both independently and as an amalgamation of flavors. A really nice sipper. The amaretto is a bit lost, and the benedictine takes over a bit. Can probably double the amaretto and cut the benedictine in half.Improvement: I traded the Bulleit for Maker's mark, and dropped down to 5 ml benedictine and 10 ml amaretto. I also replaced 10ml of Cointreau (I didn't have any grande marnier, so I originally did 30ml) for normal cognac. I feel like the Amaretto and Benedictine fight for the same flavor space, so you only get one at the cost of the other. You could probably minimalize this cocktail and come away with almost all the flavor at the cost of up to 2 ingredients. It's a very tasty cocktail, but it's bad in the sense that you have to choose between the Benedictine or the Amaretto
