This was outstanding as an evening sipper. However, you must, must, must like Agricole rhum and the herbal of the green chartreuse. If not, this is not your cocktail. If you are looking for a good night cap with a big hit of rhum funk, this is great. Did find the cocktail benefitted from a splash of cold water to help bloom the flavors (this even after a very long stir). It also seems to soften any rough edges as it sits and breathes.
