Quite potent (nearly 84 proof prior to ice dilution) but full of herbal flavor. This one adjusts ratios/components and pushes the herbal Nardini profile further than the Carroll Gardens (Death & Co.), reducing the sweetness while piling on with a generous amount of wormwood bitters--which have some cardamom and clove as their spice component and provide a more pronounced bitter finish. Both the Carroll Gardens and this one excel in their own ways.
