Superb. The chocolate seems to overwhelm the orange a bit, but I think that is probably down to my chocolate liqueur (Tempus Fugit Creme de Cacao, which is outstanding, but VERY chocolatey). I'll adjust for next time, which I'm sure will happen soon.

The ingredients play very well together. The hint of orange compliments the Irish. Made with Red Breast and Alma Finca orange liqueur.
My compliments to the creator, but I would have to agree with the other comments and add an extra 10ml of the whiskey, other it gets a little lost.
This is quite delicious. Probably a little more appropriate for a summer evening versus the middle of February, but either way a grand way to start the weekend. All the flavours play well together, no one ingredient overwhelms the others.
