Nui'umi'umi - I LOVE a Last Word! Chartreuse is one of my favourites. I'd be interested if you have any other exotic cocktails using it as an ingredient (swizzles excluded) as I find it to be such a dominating flavour.

I've only gone on the tiki nights, so I may not be the best judge. But I think the place is known for well made cocktails, and the bartenders I've encountered are uniformly mindful and well-trained. Enjoy. If you have time also check out the library bar downstairs.
