Made with (boring) Carlos I but with:(exciting) Punt e Mes taking it into Negroni territory.
Very good!

I was trying to make this, but invented this "Brandy Mocha" by accident when I added Chocolate rather than Coffee Liqueur.
30ml black coffee (V60, Booths Black) 40ml brandy (Carlos I)
10ml chocolate liqueur Slice of orange flesh. Splash agave syrup.
Splash aquafaba and a few drops of Fees Foam (ie anything foamy)
All into Nutribullet. Add two ice cubes, leave one minute. Remove one cube then zizz up
Into frozen coupe glass (Martini glass too small).
Really good. Quite Christmas-y. Foamed very well. Isn’t the standard EM too coffee-y? This has Nuance.

I once got very drunk with some charming Germans at the Osborne bodega.
Unlike other tours, they were very generous leaving, I think, six bottles of sherry between eight of us. Despite no common language, we then decided to see what else we could find, and found a bottle of Carlos I.
Once that was gone, and following my mirth-inducing use of the ladies' lavs, I headed home.
I bought a litre at Malaga Airport's Duty Free shop for €27.
I wanted to like it.
But it's bland. It's no Torres 10, sadly

I really enjoyed this.
Well Balanced, it becomes a unique taste. The cacao seems to smooth everything out.
(I used blood orange and brown cacao.)
