An extremely well balanced and tasty cocktail. Wouldn't change a thing. 

We used a local ginger liqueur that I would say is miles better than Canton, but this made it have a strong spicy afternote which everyone who had enjoyed.

Wintery Mix

2 oz Gin (11 Wells - Ecgberht Gin)
3⁄4 oz Orange chocolate liqueur, Distillerie de Biercée Orangine
1⁄2 bsp Absinthe (La Fée - XS Absinthe Suisse)
2 ds Bitters (Five Watt - Gin Bitters)
Instructions

Stir till especially cold (~50 seconds), and pour into a chilled cocktail glass

Notes

La Fée XS Absinthe Suisse has the traditional anise flavor but goes much deeper into mint and herbal notes. The orangine is a orange/cocoa liqueur. Any well balanced gin would work nicely

History

This is one of those culinary "triads", where three flavors/ingredients blend with their neighbor: gin + orange, orange + chocolate, and incredibly chocolate + gin.

  • Subbed Koval with cognac. Very delicious, but would love to try it with the Koval. *UPDATE* still no Koval. Made with Bison grass vodka, lime, mint syrup and Creme de Violette. Awesome! One day I'll find some Koval... — ★★★★★
  • Sub out the koval and blueberries for Creme de mure and blackberries.

1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
2 ds Bitters (Dashfire Allspice)

The spiced apple liqueur is especially particularly to this drink, but any softer, more honey'd scotch would work well. Additionally, an allspice dram could be subbed for the bitters.

  • Possibly a 5. Use a Bourbon with a nice finish. I used Woodford Reserve - Like a sweet Daiquiri with an oaky finish. Exquisite.
