Tried the recipe today with: Coconut oil fatwashed overproof english harbor (velier), classic Cynar, and 1/3 oz more rum, Gagliardo fernet
Coffee and boulevardier kind of drink, benefits from a long stir and dilution.
4 stars and will do again.
Didn't have Coconut Rum, so blended Clement Mahina Coco liquor 50/50 with an aged rum, turned out quite nice. It's a good blend of sweet and bitter, and always novel to have a nearly black cocktail as a look.
An intriguing presentation (deep dark reddish black/brown with a clear ice sphere passing for setting, smoke haze obscured Sun). To give the full effect: add an orange peel cut and shaped like a sail stuck on a long pick (mast) dropped vertically into the drink. The flavor is rather unique as well, with a bit of coconut, slight sweetness, chocolate, dark root, bitter artichoke leaf, and fernet herbal notes.
