AuthorchrisA riff off the Lucien Gaudin cocktail, which is a light and delicate cocktail named after a French fencer, I bring you the John Fethers, a bolder, darker, more full bodied cocktail as befitting an Australian Olympic fencer. The orange notes in the Campari and Grand Marnier work well with the Mr Black coffee liqueur, and a more floral gin such as Hendrick's or Aviation work better here than a more traditional London Dry.
