Okay, I am now the proud owner of a bottle of green chartreuse. And I have become a fan. A big fan.

I like B&B a lot!

OK, you got me. I bet this is one dish for which Escoffier would’ve wanted a Mulligan.

Yes! I love how it’s not as sweet as Grand Mariner or Drambuie, but has the interesting flavors of the Benedictine. Those monks of yesteryear used their time well I think!

Malört. Although I’m kinda kidding, I do like the initial bitterness.

Another Malört fan here! I kind of use it as medicine.

At the back of a foodie magazine (“Chocolatier” ?) Chambord used to run an ad for a mix of equal parts of Chambord and Cognac. On a business trip to Piscataway, N.J., spending time at the hotel bar after dinner with my travel companions, I decided to try it. Definitely recommended! The lady serving behind the bar was rather generous with her pours, so we left in good spirits, with her tip jar generously endowed.

I tried Benedectine earlier this week; it reminded me of yellow chartreuse.
In other news, I want to try to find the Istrian raspberry liquor that I mentioned upthread. Fernet Branca was also fun.

If you happen to have a bottle of Chambord, a shot of it is also delicious in a margarita! Realize that’s not a digestive, but a great use of it. I’ll have to get a bottle of cognac & try that w/Chambord.
Still enjoying grappa a lot these days. Just having some Nonino Merlot after a rib eye, with some chocolate, and I feel like I am in heaven! 
I’ve also bought a bottle of aged chardonnay grappa but haven’t opened it yet.
Right now, grappa is my favourite digestif.

My dad liked grappa. He was introduced to it in Italy, and much to everyone’s surprise, really enjoyed it and sought it out when he arrived back in the US.
