Gin upfront, sweetened by Vermouth. The Chartreuse in the back could be upped a tiny bit. Orange bitters are lost, at least I cant taste them. I prefer Tanqueray TEN as my Gin in this one.

Surprisingly heavy on the chartreuse, would be tempted to up the vermouth a whisker. Otherwise a potent, rich, highly flavoured and sumptuous cocktail. Classic no nonsense flavour-forward drinking.

Was watching "McCabe and Mrs. Miller" again last night and various parts of the internet seems to claim that the cocktail that McCabe drinks (double whisky and a raw egg) is called an Amber Moon. Can you help clarify? Perhaps if it is known under a different name here then a clarification can be added? :)

Complex, challenging and gorgeous. A heavyweight and dare I say it, a man’s cocktail!

Gin on the nose and upfront but quickly changes to the Chartreuse ( I also used 3/4 oz. ) and finishes dry. Nicely balanced. Would recommend.

Added 3/4 oz chartreuse because of John Hinojos comment and I love it. I'll have to try it as written sometime, too.

Very nice drink, bold, but at the same time thoughtful and nuanced.

Great drink. I love Green Chartreuse and this is great for an aperitif. For my taste, I think I would up the Chartreuse a little.
