Imbibe attributes this to Pomodoro, Shellenberger's current place of employment, but Stephen clarified on Facebook that he came up with it seven years ago at Dante. He sometimes makes it with melted chocolate and cream as a "Chocolate Martini."

In Brighter Flames Array'd

1 1⁄4 oz Apple brandy, Germain-Robin
1 oz Madeira (Rainwater)
3⁄4 oz Ginger liqueur, Domaine de Canton
1⁄4 oz Amaro Sibilla
20 dr Bitters, Bittered Sling Moondog
Instructions

Stir, strain, up.

Notes

This will probably be better with Sercial - the older the better. It needs a bit of cut, and reducing the ginger liqueur isn't going to do it. The bitters are interesting - smoky, minty/herbal.

  • Sooo good! Cinnamon syrup works well in this, but interested in trying variations. Also, I used 10 yr taylor's tawny port and upped it to 1/2 oz. Heavy!

Delicious. Didn't have any Orinoco bitters so I used 50/50 cardamom and Angostura. Nicely done 4/5.

OldFashionedCock commented on 6/26/2025:

Excellent dessert cocktail. Subbed Powers Gold Label. Found it well balanced and reminiscent of a baked good; don't ask me how.

1 1⁄2 oz Cognac
3⁄4 oz Pineapple syrup
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse

  • Tried it up. Very sweet and sour; probably worth trying the crushed ice version. Pineapple and chartreuse are a natural pairing. — ★★★★
