Can you tell me how you "express" orange zest? I really don't know what that means.

As others mentioned, you'll really need to make sure you get the dilution right for your own taste, but the result is a smooth, tasty mildly vanilla herbal rum drink. Yum.

As with others, my first impression was that the strength, wild, delicious, lacked an acid to provide balance. I added a few squeezes of lime juice, which improved it, but next time I think I might use something more potent like grapefruit bitters. I also felt like the chartreuse overpowered the flavor of the Licor 43. They are two of my favorite Lecure’s, but next time I think I might increase the Licor 43 to 3/4 oz and decrease the chartreuse to 1/4 oz.

First taste was a bit sweet - so gave it a bit longer on the stir and added two dashes of Scrappys Lime Bitters.
Just gave it that edge back and very nice too.

I made this by mistake with 1/3rd oz of Licor 43 and even then it seemed to be a bit too prominent for my taste.

I really enjoyed this even if a bit sweet. If old books, well tanned leather, and sweet tobacco were a flavor….this would be it.

Bit sweet for our taste but benefitted from a couple dashes of orange bitters

Wonderful! The flavors create a warm and rich sensation, especially with a mix of dark and light rums.
