A Symphony of Elegance
At its heart lies aged Armagnac, offering a luxurious depth that anchors the drink in tradition. The herbal brilliance of green Chartreuse adds a vibrant complexity, while lemon juice introduces a refreshing tartness.

St-Germain and honey contribute a subtle sweetness, balanced by orange and lavender bitters, which enhance the cocktail’s botanical notes. From there, a bold global dimension emerges—Fernet-Branca for its bitter sophistication, Mezcal for a whisper of smokiness, and Cynar for its artichoke-inspired depth. Aperol and a hint of ginger complete the drink with a lively, citrusy finish.
