Depending on your coffee liqueur, this can be a tad on the dry side so I've added a splash of sugar. Hence, according to your own tastes, you may want...

I made mine with St George Nola (and Wild Turkey 101) and it was so good, nothing overly complex but felt like a good showcase for the liqueur. Will be trying it with Bardstown Wheated next

:shrug: maybe a different coffee liqueur? My DW & I both tasted only bourbon. Mine had McAfee's Benchmark 'Old No.8' , Fee Brothers West Indian Orange Bitters, and Kahlua.

Can I aks what the purpose of the flamed organge zest twist is? Is it for show or does it add something to the cocktail's flavor? I'm as much about the presentation as I am about the flavor. Many thanks.

Toasting citrus zest does impact flavour while also adding theatre.

Great color for an Autumnal Equinox afternoon cocktail. Well balanced with te Kahlua. Used Buffalo Trace this first time, but will try with a variety of others. Keeper.

My favorite cocktail for May! My version: 2 Wild Turkey 101, .5 Kahlua, 2 dashes orange bitters. Easy and tasty.

Excuse the but so subtle plug, but this cocktail was my choice for the latest episode of 'Cocktail Mode', my podcast where I pair drinks with retro video games.
I used fairly budget ingredients (as that's what I had to hand) and still enjoyed it a great deal, certainly didn't need the syrup when using Kahlua.

Pretty good. I used Mr Black and subbed in maple syrup for the simple. It's a strong, rich cocktail.

Delicious, love it as a nightcap. Used Mr. Black and cinnamon syrup, the almost smoky mix of coffee and the flamed orange with the bourbon makes it feel like the wild west distilled into a drink. Absolute delight if you're in that sort of mood.
