I honestly don't understand how this is a riff on a Naked&Famous. This is a riff on an Industry Sour through and through. It lacks the herbal complexity of the original Industry Sour, and honestly isn't *as* good, but it's still really damn good. The chartreuse takes more of a backseat to the Fernet in this one, but the saffron and honey notes really smooths things out making it a lot more approachable.

This is probably what I'd make for someone who wanted something interesting, but who also didn't have a shot palate from years of bartending.

Wanted to be disappointed, but suspected I would love it. Not quite what I expected. It exceeded those expectations, I think because of the measure of lime juice. It's got a dark, dirty sweetness up front, but it disappears all too quick. It's weird - no rum in this, but it almost tastes like a midnight Moijto.

I posted this and only then immediately realized there's probably a drink called Midnight Mojito. I don't care what's in that. This recipe is IT.

What a wonderful fernet cocktail!

Much enjoyment from this, the fernet and yellow chartreuse work well together and with the lime and sugar balancing the bitterness this is a very pleasing drink.

I'm not a big Fernet Branca fan, but this was magical. The sweetness and flavors of the Yellow Chartreuse tamed the fernet and complimented it at the same time
