I don't know why I've never posted this before, because it may be one of my personal favorite creations. Granted, it's a weird drink, intensely herbal and funky, but I make it every time I have its constituent ingredients on hand. It doesn't hurt that I'm a Dry Rye evangelist.
2 1/2 oz St. George Dry Rye
1/4 oz thyme syrup
1 dash Luxardo maraschino liqueur
2 dashes Regan's No. 6 Orange bitters
2 dashes Peychaud's bitters
2 dashes Bitter Truth Jerry Thomas' Own Decanter bitters
Stir and strain over a fresh large cube in an old-fashioned glass.
Genever (especially the Bols aged variety) is a decent, though imperfect, substitute for the Dry Rye. You might want to save some for a Dutch Quarter.
