Really enjoyed. A bit on the sweet side for me, but is perfect for after-dinner. All the ingredients blend perfectly together with nothing overshadowing the other.

A very interesting after dinner drink. Felt like a dessert drink with a sort of Chocolate-orange overtone. Wonder if it were the cranberries alongside the mandarin and Bourbon causing that. Definitely will make again.
