Created for the recent Mr. Black Coffee Cocktail Challenge. Coffee is classic for after dinner, and I thought a flip was well-suited to capture that. The other ingredients reflect that theme; brandy, the classic after-dinner spirit, a trio of digestivo amari, and my new favorite pairing of orange and Xocolatl Mole bitters. Finally, a dusting of fresh cinnamon and an orange peel. It opens strong with brandy and coffee and the aroma of cinnamon and orange. It’s very creamy and lightly sweet before finishing bitter with cacao, orange, and slight menthol.
