Deliciously chocolate-y, honey and then agave. The Tequila Blanco is absolutely apt and just balanced. A Reposado would make it too sweet.

chartreuse and cacao really do go well together. I also thought the orange bitters and zest both really tie this thing together. great lil sipper here

I will definitely return to this using the called for ingredients. All I had on hand was Chartreuse verte, Cocchi Americano, and Cartron dark creme de cacao. Fantastic sipper.

Maybe I wasn't clear. I used the above mentioned ingredients and the drink was tasty enough to warrant a second turn, using the specified elements. Why am I always in such a rush?!...

This is so fascinating because the drink contains no bergamot but I get the distinct flavor of it in this drink. Definitely making this again!
