Honestly, a fantastic cocktail. I like to serve my cocktails dumped, rather than served up, and the extra infusion of basil was really nice.

Would an absinthe rinse or replacing with green chartreuse work well?

This is great! I agree that your choice of Cachaça will impact the end result. I used Paranubes, and honestly it imparts an aged Cachaça vibe with strong cane aroma, albeit with a higher ABV. Great drink!

I am not overall convinced. I think the quality of the drink depends more on the Cachaça used than the relations.

This is another of my all time favorites. I quite enjoy it with 1/2 oz of the cachaça being barrel aged. I also tried a variation with tequila which was not good.

I tend to agree with others. I had it tonight, and thought it was lovely. But I think I will try upping the cachaca and lowering the agave syrup next time - I would say not by too much though. I definitely wouldn't add bitters.

Really like the herbal nature of this cocktail. Did read the reviews and upped the cachaca to 1 3/4 oz and halved the agave syrup. Still found it a bit sweet for us, so we added 4 drops of Difford's Daiquiri Bitters. Still had a nice sweet touch, but the herbal notes came out stronger. Delightlful.

It’s nice but not great. A bit like an undercooked Last Word/Final Argument. But I could drink two or three of these, unlike the others ???
