"Jägermeister has long been on my list of amari to try again. I was about 18 the last time I tasted it and it was on my no fly list for a very long time afterwards. But I was gifted a shooter of it at work and finally could give a cocktail with it a go with no commitment (but let’s be real, it’s cheap as hell). I threw this together on the fly and honestly it came out super delicious and interesting. Single barrel rum meets the Jäger as a base, supplemented by the other ingredient heavy Green Chartreuse. Together with lemon and Coco Lopez (and some additional spice from two of Scrappy’s bitter offerings) we have a rum sour with a ridiculous amount of complexity. Anise and mint are up front, with the vanilla and bitter flavors underneath, ending on chartreusey coconut citrus notes. I could’ve focused this in a little better but honestly each sip was another question and I don’t have all the answers at the end. I could see myself ordering a second one of these out just to try to figure out exactly how I feel about it (professionals take notes here). Cheers to trying new things and cheap, flavorful German bitter liqueurs!",
