Quite a good little late night desert sipper. Like a mellower Boulevardier or Negroni. Stumbled upon this looking for something to use my white Creme De Cacao with and this might become a regular!

I'm surprised by the negative reviews.
I thought this was as particularly nice Boulevardier. Will definitely be making this one again. (All In)

I like bourbon and campari. Can’t taste either one in this. Just overly sweet cacophony of flavours.

This cocktail went immediately into my favorites. I find it smoother than a Boulevardier and a bit more 'tourist friendly' than a Negroni. I'm looking forward to sharing this with my Campari loving friends, and I can't wait to experiment with the cocao. Maybe Bene, or Monte?

Good for an evening sipping cocktail. It does like to have a long stir. Did add a splash of water.

Something of a sock in the puss, but settles down well, wet ice helps.

My wife and I quite enjoyed this one. The bite of the rye complimented the touch of cocoa and made an enjoyable sipper for sitting on the porch. By the way, it really works with Bruto Americano from St. George Spirits in Alameda California in lieu of Campari.

Mess of a drink. All the ingredients could be put to much better use elsewhere.

Used what I had and it turned out surprisingly better than expected, but the vermouth seriously just sticks out like a sore thumb. Subs: Willett 4 Year Rye (112.2 proof), Four Roses bourbon, Cinzano Extra Dry vermouth.

A whisky-heavy Boulevardier with a dash of chocolate. It doesn’t work for me, partly because the Martini gets swamped by the other flavours. Certainly not unpleasant, but not great either.
