Review

Cognac, elderflower liqueur and Chartreuse (a trinity indeed) with dashes of bitters and an aromatic citrus twist. This is a boozy cocktail so you may prefer our 25% smaller riff to suit a Nick & Nora rather than the original Coupe glass:
45ml / 1½oz Cognac
15ml / ½oz Elderflower liqueur
10ml / 1/3oz Yellow Chartreuse
1 dash Orange bitters

Much too sweet for me. I added a barspoon of fernet and found that helped tame it. I still wanted to soften it and added 1/4 oz campari and a dash of grapefruit bitters. On the whole a better cocktail for me but I think lowering the St Germain to 1/2 oz would also help.

Excellent! Certainly boozy but I would say slightly more on the sweet side that 5. Maybe 4, but then of course everyone has their own benchmark!

This is a phenomenal cocktail. Incredibly balanced with all sorts of different flavors.
