The St-Germain adds a nice little loral note that perfectly complements with vanilla and caramel notes in the Four Roses.��� ���Stacie Stewart ���The cocktail has very nice curb appeal, and I love the combination of bourbon and peaches. A clean and elegant drink with nice, well-balanced layers.��� ���Jason Burns ���Delicious!
