Review:
A raspberry charged variation on the Blackthorn with faint Chartreuse herbal notes.
History:
Adapted from a recipe created by bartender Takumi Watanabe. Takumi's original recipe doesn't use fresh raspberries, instead, he uses 15ml homemade raspberry syrup (made with 200ml fresh raspberry juice and 150ml sugar).
