My first sip, I thought, “Oh, Okay, I guess.” But then, I decided to pair it with a salty snack, in my case a bowl of salted roasted pumpkin seeds, and OH BOY. It’s purrrrfect.

Quite enjoyed this, used genepy for the Chartreuse.

wow nice and smoky perhaps a clarified simple syrup to prevent the over cloudyness to the drink
Peychauds not needed perhaps a chocolate bitters instead to fight for attention
