Very nice cocktail. It feels a bit softer and smoother to me than a traditional Sazerac. I used Glenlivet 12 and Remy Martin 1738. A little bit of time I'm the glass also helped smooth it out.
I made this for my mother, a single-malt whiskey fan. I used her 17YO Glenburgie scotch - it went down well. I didn't want to waste any Green Chartreuse, so I used an atomiser which seemed to work well. No lemon, so I had to make do with a blood orange peel.
This was great. I found it a bit smoother than the regular New Orleans Sazerac. We had it to end Burn's Night with some shortbread. A perfect after-dinner cocktail.
Good point! In our classic Sazerac recipe we suggest enjoying the absinthe shot on the side so perhaps you could do the same for this one, and strain the Chartreuse from the ice to enjoy as a bonus side sipper.
