@Rafa's Honeywell, which is a way of making a Rusty Nail using seven bottles and two fruits! :D 

I see why "honey" is in the name, as this is a very sweet drink. Out-of-balance sweet at first sip, though I realized that the recipe's (discarded) orange twist and (inserted) lemon twist are intended as the key to counter the cloying aspect, and the zests I had at hand were limp and ungenerous, unfortunately. With better citrus this would have worked still better, though it's still a dessert-time sipper. Complex orange and complex tobacco under the honey.
