Review
Herbal, bittersweet and sour. Being a 'Sour', it seemed fitting to add a few drops of saline and a splash of egg white.

Exceptional.
Initially I felt the vegetal green of the Chartreuse was being freshened with the lime, but then the medicinal warmth of the Fernet came through.
Having this at home means I've missed out on an approving nod from a bartender, but it's so easy (and cheap) here.
One for life. I cannot imagine a post-Industrial future.
But, with Green Chartreuse in short supply, we have been experimenting with other herbal liqueurs. Here are our results:
Strega - 4.5/5
CioCaro - 4.5/5
Cardamaro - 4.5/5
Nonino - 4/5
Galliano - 4/5
Suze - 4/5
This time I used Asperley Bros Britannica Fernet ( cacao & deep liquorice flavours) and this is now one of my 5*+ repeat drinks.
If you didn't like cough medicine as a child then not may be not for you though!
