Cook Notes Summary
Both attempts were excellent and worth making again. The main improvement is to intensify the mole and chocolate character, either by adding more mole bitters or stirring slightly less to limit dilution; a variation using high-proof peated Irish whiskey also worked very well and added distinctive smoky depth.
