What a perfect combination of flavours and notes, quite exceptional (at least to my palate). Had to sub the whiskey barrel bitters for Chocolate bitters, as another discerning drinker suggested, but it worked for me. Now on rotation!
I have to say that Bivrost is a first rate aquavit for cocktails (supported by my Norwegian family!) One day i will be quick enough to buy the Christmas special bottling… Seriously good spirit. And they do love their liquorice!
Nice sipper, and good to get my bottle of Suze back into circulation. I used brown cane syrup, which i tend to prefer, but didn’t find it over sweet. I will try this again but will up the Suze and lower the Lillet (which to my palate is a tiny bit too prominent, but hey we are all different)
Tried this with Campari in place of the amaro santoni. Very pleasant. Surprised at the dominance of fruit notes. Glad I splurged on a nice Palo Cortado bottle! Will make again.
