With orange bitters instead of absinthe, and Giffard's white creme de cacao: Very nice, warm, rich. The ratio of cacao to Dubonnet was spot on. I'd take this over a [Dubonnet Cocktail No.1] any day (sorry your majesty!)

I found the cacao overwhelming. Tried orange bitters, then aperol to tame the sweetness. Ashamed to say this one went down the drain :-(

This didn’t quite make it for me, although maybe just wasnt in the mood. Used Dubonnet and would be keen to try with Byrrh. There did seem to be a slight clash of the absinthe and cacao for my palate. Twentieth Century still my go to for cocktail using the brilliant De Kuyper white cacao. Did improve as warmed. Bumped the cacao to 10.
