I recall that Paloma recommended this elsewhere way back whenever. Having got our hands on a bottle of dark creme de cacao we felt that we must try it. Absolutely delicious. Thanks for the splendid tip Paloma.

Who needs dessert when you can have a Haberdasher?! Glad you enjoyed it Simon.

Great cocktail and a nice heavy cream alternative drink to a White Russian. The day after drinking it I was looking over the ingredients, and thought of it as a Boozier High end Irish cream variation. The next time I make it I'll use Redbreast 12 Irish whiskey, Cheers!

Not just a gorgeous looking drink, an absolutely divine tasting drink. Like a Verte Chaud (Chartreuse spiked hot chocolate) but then after a while of getting through the cream you have the mint chocolate bourbon. Totally worth the faff of having to stir part, then shake another part twice, and then having to layer (I never got the back of the spoon trick to work, but I've had great luck by just using the barspoon normally!)

Used 1792 Bourbon, Tempus Fugit Creme de Cacao, Amaro de Angostura and 9e Centenaire Chartreuse.
Also added a couple of drops of Foamer to the cream to help it layer - stayed separate all the way to the last drop.
So much going on with the cream and herbs on the top and then the chocolate sweetness before the hit of bourbon finally breaks through.
Its a fiddle but really worth the effort!

Just did this one replacing Fernet with Ferro China del Moro (a Calabriese FerroChina that has the peppermint and liquorice taste of Fernet Branca + the ferrous aftertaste typical of Ferrochina).
Absolutely stunning!

I’ve been eyeing this cocktail for a Haar & finally got a bottle of Fernet Branca to try it. Delicious. The cream really cuts the intensity.

My execution of the dry shake and topping of the cream mix was personally disappointing but the flavor was good. We enjoyed an after dinner drink. Ginger seasoned lamb lion chops with mushroom infused beef broth rice.
