Peppermary commented on 9/26/2020:

Harmonious, with the absinthe providing a nice little kick. Would make again. 

jhollist99 commented on 2/07/2023:

Really nice drink. Absinthe rinse & lemon are key. I would up rye by .5 0z

HallA commented on 6/23/2024:

Solid 3. I made with Cocchi Doppo di Teatro, which is a little sweeter than Punt a Mes and probably should have put a barspoon of zucca or something else to match bitterness. Definitely worth a try.

1 pn Cardamom (to rim glass)
1 oz Bourbon, Buffalo Trace
1 oz Ancho Reyes chile liqueur (Verde)

Coffee Heering is unheard of in these parts, but Kahlua works just fine.
