  • 6/15/23: Herbal and complex, but still very approachable. Perhaps the best last word riff I've had. Really solid.
  • Light, sweet lemony with just the right amount of herbal complexity
  • Made with green chartreuse and a dash of simple syrup. Quite good.

Comments

I reduced the Yellow Chartreuse & Benedictine to 2/3 oz. each to lessen the sweetness while still having their flavors come through. 4 stars
