six-zero-bravo

1 1/2 oz Espolon Blanco Tequila (Olmeca Altos)
3/4 oz Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Yellow Chartreuse
1/4 oz Luxardo Maraschino
1 dash Orange Bitters (Angostura Orange)

Shake with ice, strain into a coupe glass, and garnish with a spritz of lavender tincture (3 drop Scrappy's Lavender Bitters).
Two Mondays ago, I sought out the night's drink in Atlanta's Paper Plane online flashcard set that I found, and I landed on the Six-Zero-Bravo that was an Aviation riff that reminded me of a tequila-based Refined Speech. Once prepared, the Six-Zero-Bravo perhaps named after the Damien Lewis book based on the Iraqi war showcased a vegetal, nutty cherry, and floral aroma. Next, lemon and a hint of cherry on the sip flew into tequila, herbal, nutty, and cherry flavors on the swallow.
