Review:

Boozy and floral with a hint of sweetness to smooth and harmonise, this after-dinner cocktail, originally served straight-up in a coupe (as presented here) but we prefer ours on-the-rocks.

This was amazing evening cocktail. All of the ingredients blend together perfectly with no flavour overshadowing the others. It is very spirit forward and a hint of sweetness. Had originally poured into a coupe glass and then saw the note that it was good on the rocks. Added ice to the coupe glass. Perfect.
