Tried it with four roses+cointreau, four roses small batch+cointreau, and four roses small batch+curacao. the 2nd one was surprisingly by far the best, even with Carpano Antica somehow not overwhelming. Lovely vanilla and warming spice. An excellent drink. HOF 9/291

I tried almost the same combination: four roses small batch select (adjusted to 40ml)+cointreau+Antica di Torino+lemon juice+a bar spoon of syrup from my maraschino cherry jar. Characters of the four roses vividly expressed, with refreshing citrus and warm spice notes. Awesome bedtime sipper, but I'll try with Grand Marnier+lime juice to see whether it gets even more enchanting.
