This was excellent. The pineapple was present but stayed out of the way. The Calvados shined with support from the "Cognac." (I used a French V.S.O.P. brandy Darvelle Freres.) The orange/sour team played well (not dominant, left room for the pineapple) and the bones behind all of this had to be Chartreuse Verte.

Really nice! Delicately balanced and subtle flavour combinations coming through. Love to touch of chartreuse in this.

O gosh ya that'

...'s very tasty! I over poured the Chartreuse, 15ml rather than 7.5. Hence doubled up the rest of the ingredients to make x2. More of a triple really.
