  • Used Fee Bros. Aztec Chocolate bitters -- worked great. Reminiscent of a peppermint mocha, so after the first sip I grated a coffee bean over top, which really elevated it.
  • Use chocolate bitters — ★★★★
  • Swapped in Bittermens Xocolatl Mole bitters for other bitters and C de C for simple s. Tried 1 Xoc and .5 Hell for bitters. Better. 4.5
  • The balance between the Fernet and Carpano is so elegant and I really enjoy the subtle yet persistent Fernet flavor. I've been into another version with Bittermens Xocolatl Mole bitters which I like a lot.
  • Light on the bitters
