Basically, a Negroni with liqueur replacing sweet vermouth. Like the Italian classic, this is both bitter and sweet

Meh. The substitution of Cointreau for vermouth is interesting, but ultimately this lacks the complexity and depth of a classic Negroni. You'll just feel like you asked for a Negroni and the bartender was having an off day.

I agree. It sounded good on paper, but I found it to be disappointingly unbalanced.
